I've just had a hectic and stress-filled move (that happens when you're given ten days' notice to relocate yourself and your things ;)), and have been feeling physically and emotionally unwell, so if you're one of those kind souls who has some positive energy to spare, I'm in a particularly good period to send some! Any positivity you send is *greatly* appreciated. :D Thank you from the center of my being (currently under construction ;))!
I'm an eccentric, with a mind for issues -- both mine and the world's. My closest friends are creative, intelligent, compassionate, and often troubled ... rather like me! ;D I just started my own business, and someday I'd like to be approved by Co-Op America. I see the forest more than the trees, and the patterns therein; and I demand justice for the wrongs that are being committed every day, on levels micro and macro.
When Star Wars, Episode I came out, I cut my hair for the first time -- like Obi-Wan Kenobi's (in a Padawan cut).
My Philosophy
What Gives Me Hope
When people, singly or together, stand against an unhealthy state of existence -- with strength, intelligence, awareness, compassion, and a sense of fun, for as long as it takes to change the world, and longer.
If I were Mayor, I'd make the world a better place by
What/who changed my life and why
Star Wars, because it taught me the difference between love and attachment. (Yes, yes, even before Episodes II and III. ;))
