I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

i like the earth and i am hers. i like trees and roots, leaves, wool and paint. brown, purple and red and all the other colours too. i like to breathe slowly.
i like to sometimes not have anything to say. i like silence very much.
i draw and paint (http://flickr.com/photos/lairilai/), make books and masks, i write and i love to sing. i want to sing more. i travel. i make necklaces and things with gems and crystals. and i love to cook. i love to dance in the sun. i am starting to do a bit of magic, maybe one day i will be a real witch.
i like to listen to what the trees have to say. i like big rocks and rivers and the sea. i love the sun. i love the moon too.
i like not wearing shoes. i like to have no walls or roof. i like dogs and people. i love clouds and starred skyes.
i fell in love with mexico, i want to come back soon. i love being a nomad and living with little money. i love being friends with amazing cosmic heart people in all the corners of the world.
i dont agree with the system and i don't believe its lies. i don't want to be part of this big illusion.
i like to be connected with my spirit and embrace the earth as my mother.
i like to love unconditionally. i try to live acoording to the 4 toltec agreements: "don't make assumptions. don't take anything personally, be impeccable with your word. always do your best".
i am in love with life. i am grateful to the earth, the universe, the sun, the moon, the water, the fire, the air and the earth. i am grateful for all the people that share their wisdom. i am grateful for all the real smiles. and the hugs. all the love.
i am a yellow magnetic sun.
