Music, martial-arts, soccer, art, traveling, philosophy, photography, and my family are the greater part of my life. My interests vary on a daily basis, and are never limited to trying something new at least once. I live, learn, teach, work, love, and play.
I'd like to meet:
ANYONE AND EVERYONE! WE ARE ALL UNIQUE CREATURES."Because we do not know when we are going to die, we get to think of life as an inexhaustible well and yet everything happens only a certain number of times, and a very small number really. How many times will you remember a certain afternoon of your childhood? An afternoon that is so deeply a part of your being that you cannot conceive of your life without it? Perhaps 4 .... 5 times more. Perhaps not even that. How many times will you watch the full moon rise ...... Perhaps twenty and yet it all seems limitless." I know this is a roundabout way of saying this, but we have this false sense that we are going to live forever. So if there is something mundane as going for a cup of coffee with a friend, do it...for they might not be here tomorrow. Cherish this and each moment, a moment in a million years, a moment called LIFE.

Television:
Don't watch it too much. There are better things out there in life than the damn tube!--The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider freeways, but narrower viewpoints. We
spend more, but have less; we buy more, but enjoy less. We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems, more medicine, but less wellness.We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom. We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk toomuch, love too seldom, and hate too often.We've learned how to make a living, but not a life. We've added years to life not life to years. We've been all the way to the moon
and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor. We conquered outer space but not inner space. We've done larger things, but not better things.We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul. We've conquered the atom, but not our prejudice. We write more, but learn less. We
plan more, but accomplish less. We've learned to rush, but not to wait. We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less.These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and small character, steep profits and shallow relationships. These are the days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier houses, but broken homes.These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill. It is a time when there is much in the showroom window and nothing in the stockroom. A time when technology can bring this letter to you, and a time when you can choose either to share this insight, or to just hit delete.Remember; spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever. Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe, because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side. Remember, to give a warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the only treasure you can give with your heart and it doesn't cost a cent.Remember, to say, "I love you" to your partner and your loved ones, but most of all mean it. A kiss and an embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you. Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will not be there again. Give time to love, give time to speak, and give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind.Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away. And that is why, the time with my loved ones is spent rightfully and measured pricelessly.
Books:
I do not believe in everything I read, so I stopped reading books for a while. My favorite book of all time is "With Fire And Sword". Since then...books do not grab my interest as much as they used to, however...I do occassionaly read epics, philosophy, and logic. I visited many countries (Poland, England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland, Denmark, Chech Republic, Canada, Italy, Romania, Germany, Belize, and Finland) and it is still not enough...I want more! I like to read the world map...I guess ;)
You have been marked on my profile map!
Heroes:
In mythological terms heroes are often of divine ancestry, who are endowed with great courage and strength, celebrated for their bold exploits, and favored by the common people. Such people are noted for feats of courage or nobility of purpose, especially when they risk or sacrifice their life. There are many heroes among us, people of this stature that go through life unnoticed or recognized. Thus, I think we are all heroes at one point or another, for trying to survive this humanity race throughout our intoxicated lives.
