About Me

"If, in our everyday life, we manifest love, service and honesty, renunciation is achieved without renouncing the world."

-meher baba

My Interests

i am really interested in ending the war but that's kind of heavy and not enjoyable... i do enjoy laughs, transportation, the scenery, reading, warmth, hot jams, cooking enough for 10, movies, speaking in tongues, taking it up a notch, and not getting out of hand. i always have room for fruit, salsa, red wine, a ridiculous accent, fish tacos, ginger snaps, some doowop, your favorite book/whatever is so important to you, or a cup of tea. i love kids, free swim, dishing out compliments to third parties, understanding the situation, and the smell of old spice, also lavender, jasmine, lemongrass, coffee, and the Meher Center in myrtle beach. i'm obsessed with Meher Baba, textiles, colors, compassion, DANCING, gluten-free foods, and skin. i also like sharing first experiences, surpised faces, holding hands, parlor games and speaking in extended metaphor-- while sharing a couch. i like closing my eyes, flossing, taking out my contacts, sharing this planet with sweet people, trying out new toothpastes, and making lists of things that interest me. i'm a big fan of gumption, plaid shirts, michael jackson, open minds, trees, stylish mugs for hot bevs, public broadcasting (This American Life), karaoke, being concise, good joking, winter lights, understanding process, and love everlasting !
