My interests are being educated and combating Global Warming, Inspiring People, Movers and Shakers of past present and future... Making our world a better place, a safe place for our kids. I cant help thinking how peaceful life was in the 70's everything seemed so effortless and simple. Freedom was all around. like ben harper said at Bonnaroo in 2002,'free freedom.' nowadays we need to free freedom. so read some books, travel the world, see what's out there waiting for you. seek and you shall find. That's my motto:) Oh yeah, Organic Fashions Rock!!!!
I would love to meet Oprah Winfrey, Nelson Mandela, Habib Koite, and anyone who is at the forefront of making the Earth a better place. Al Gore has a wonderful documentary called, An Inconvenient Truth. I would love to meet people who are involved with the betterment of the humanity. Greenpeace, Habitat for Humanity, and anyone/anything involved in greener living. I love all the cool furniture, homes, cars, materials, fabrics, and foods that are NOT putting the earth, our air, an ultimately our entire eco-system at risk. So anyone who is taking a stand to voice these concerns is def. someone I'd love to meet. I need to learn from them so that I can pass on the knowledge.
