Political Leaning Very Liberal

Eating Habits macrobiotic, should eat better, A well balance Died, Keep it Healthy  
Wild Fact About Me My goal is to create self-sufficient, sustainable intentional communities (econovillages -- ecovillages)on eCampuses (environmental campuses or economic campuses). My target areas are poor rural villages and town and by creating the sustainable community in and around the town, the community will become a healing, loving, caring and economically robust community which has the economic power to become the best stewards of land, water and people possible.
My Philosophy Keep it simple, keep it small, use only what we need; mend, fix, recycle, reuse; fugality is next to cleanliness; help others without fear or favor; expect the best for yourself and your friends, family and strangers.
What Gives Me Hope The ability of the Earth, plants and animals to heal themselves.
If I were Mayor, I'd make the world a better place by Fire all of the employees, then require them to re-apply for their old job, then hire folks who have proven record of competence and throughput and who really give a damn. Basically, I would hire on the basis of "What you know" not "Who you know".
What/who changed my life and why After reading Lord of Rings three times, seeing the full screen once and the DVD three times, I realize that just below the surface of the action and words, lies a huge reservoir of ethical behavior and lessons we need to learn to achieve our goals.
What Bugs Me Those who hurt others weaker than them, The destruction of rural areas, injustice, hypocrisy, arrogance, abusive people  
Passions writing, music, Energy Healing And Love  
Inspirations good people, to fulfill my purpose on earth  
What Scares Me Peak Oil Crisis, The moral direction of our society!, religious fanatics, Is how cruel the people of the world are, Disrespect for others, "Big Brother"  
  Favorites
Role Models Martin Luther King Jr., Mahatma Gandhi, John F. Kennedy  
Quotation E. B. White once said, "I arise in the morning torn between a desire to save the world and a desire to savor the world. This makes it hard to plan the day."
Interests Videography, music, Holistic Health, Gardening/Farming, environment, computers  
Books Albert Bates, Post Petroleum
