About Me

FORTULA: Greek for gift from God.I am an artist. My gifts from God can be seen in my written and spoken word, along with the images I capture using my camera of the world around me.I have placed many of my favorite photos for all to view in PICS so check 'em out. Some of my written pieces can be found in my BLOG.Enjoy.NADA SIN ARTE

My Interests

Meeting good people that can help me grow as a person. Various types of music, forms of dance, and visual art interest me most. Other than the creative zone, I enjoy great sunny days and napping freely in the afternoon...TRAVEL IS A MUST.My great appreciation goes out to all things African and Cuban...For I am Malcolm. I am Che.

I'd like to meet:

I am looking forward to meeting all interested in exchanging thoughts and expression.It's not about hooking up but rather connecting and sharing with others of like minds and interests.Let's be open and keep the spirit of creativity moving...Also down with hearing about any happenin' jams, including live bands...Life "IS" about balance, right, and I LOVE to dance and hear live music.

Music:

My music of choice TODAY: Corinne Bailey Rae, Brand New Heavies, recently revisited Dido, any Soca, Reggaeton, and Bassanova is sweet to groove to...My spirit adores Buju (Thanks to Brotha DJ Dynomite for the formal introduction to him).I JUST LOVE ALL MUSIC. THE WORDS ARE WHAT GET ME and the MUSIC MAKES ME MOVE.

Movies:

As with most things, my favorite movies are always subject to change. I would say my all time feel good movie would be Claudine with James Earl Jones. I love the comic book flicks brought to life these days.KUNG FU with David Carradine is my new obsession. The Master's Wisdom to Grasshopper is priceless and I go so far as to jot the words down in my journal for reference. I'm looking for some fly Kung Fu t-shirts. Look out for one 4 me!We'll see what grabs my interest next.

Television:

Ghost Whisperer today. Other than that, I am not a regular viewer of the tube...[Shamefully] Gilmore Girls always puts a smile on my face.

Books:

My true peace can always be found in any of Don Miguel Ruiz's books. His thoughts on life and existence changed my life by taking me on a new path...Laying by my bedside seeking my attention are: "The World Is Flat" and "Celestine Prophecies". If you are aware and connected with your spirit regarding your evolutionary process, "Celestine Prophecies" is a must.

Heroes:

My mama, of course, as well as all of the other matriarchs in my family. Love and devotion to my Anna Bel-Lori.
