I do alot of volunteer work with children ..
I paint their faces like Clowns in Central Park, work with Seniors and bring out their inner child....On rainy days I like to go out, and sing w/ my friends all the songs that have the word rain in them lol..Love to strike up conversations with total strangers all based on a first smile introduction .. its been quite enlightening..just Live the Spontaneous Wondrous Child Eye.
I'm intrigued with the child in Everyone .. and the frequency and tempo of their inner Island..to me that is the best glimpse of the state of perfection ..
I try to practice Unconditional Love, Joy and The Magical..and it is tranforming..I'm uninhibited and will get u to open that hemisphere if you get to know me; we are all Children xo..I love LOVE. the Highest form of it ... and I like to inspire , and just a Lover of Life !!I've had IT ALL....connected with some wonderful people and most all of them have passed on ..and I know without LOVE "Unconditional Love"
and a beautifully chosen Family of Inspirational/Authentic friends that Life keeps being frenetic..and missing the special Element..
I'd like to meet:
Ultimately I would be grateful to meet CatStevens/ Yusuf now as the man He is ,there would be so much to talk about and would be full circle for me ; and the most amazing Musical Arranger Maestro Jean Alain Roussel, and Anyone else My Lit Path wants me to meet :)..
Music:
My all time fave is Cat Stevens.. He has been given so many Charisms from God and He writes and sings with the deepest Chamber of His Heart .. always searching and thirsting for knowledge....and sings with such Pathos and Dynamic Phrasing that there is no one like him .His lyrics and arrangements are in a Class of its own with a Message that still enlightens today . He to me is the greatest thing to come out of Britain like The Rolling Stone Mag is quoted as saying-.. then, The Beatles.. I adore David Bowie/Live, ...

Heroes:
911 survivors and the ones who risked their Lives to Save People Our Finest ...
Being there I saw alot of them .. saw a glimpse of Perfection in how Everyone wanted to help so quickly and how people resumed their Life and tried to carry on; also my Heroes are anyone who gets the purpose of life which my Grandmothers taught me which is Having a Ministry of sorts .. and at the end of the day you look at your day and say
"Did I listen? Did I help ? Did I lend my hands.. a shoulder to cry on ? Did I make someone laugh ... what did I do to help transform the world to more Peace Joy, and Love.. even if it was only one or two people..."LIVING
IN THE NOW WITH EACH BREATH IS THE FULLNESS OF YOUR SPIRIT,
GOD DOESN'T OPERATE IN THE FUTURE.NOW IS THE GIFT..
"WALK ON
THE WISE SIDE"....
