"Spare us these latest speculators in idealism, who appear gussied up in Christian fundamentalism and who endeavor to stir up all the bovine elements of the nation through the abuse of that cheapest of propaganda tricks, the moral attitude - abuse that exhausts all conceivable patience! -Friedrick Nietsche
There is essentially nothing out there,
or here,
that is boring.
There are no boring times and places,
no boring people,
no boring books,
no boring movies,
no boring songs,
and no boring poems...
not even this one,
no matter how dry this might seem.
There is only the bored state of mind -
that fails to mindfully appreciate,
to enjoy...
this moment,
no matter what it presents.
The bored mind yearns to get away,
to an ever elusive better time and place,
that is always somewhere else,
that is always missing here.
Don't kill boredom.
Don't kill time.
Don't kill the moments of your life.
Realise the richness of now - now.
A total sweetheart on the outside, you love to fool people with your innocent image.
On the inside you're a little darker, richer, and more complex.
You're a hedonist who demands more than one pleasure at a time.
Decadent and daring, you test the limits of human indulgence.

FREE AT LAST! FREE AT LAST! Good God Almighty after 7 years I'm not so sure FREE is where it's at! I am very recently divorced so if you see me wandering around in a daze don't worry, it's only the process of the broken hearted.
I'm a 40yo Kaphic Mesomorphic Scorpio Buddhist Sheep. I come from a very Hispanic/Chicano Catholic background. I grew up with three younger brothers and have a huge extended family of Aunts, Uncles and Cousins. If you've ever read the book "Bless Me Ultima or One Hundred Years of Solitude," then you'll understand the culture in which I was raised.
I believe that if you want to live a soulful life you must embrace your own Rich Texture, strive for Creative Work and surround your self with Beauty.
I'm looking for good friends; people who can communicate and live a life of honesty with a deep awareness of oneself. I'm not looking for Angels (unless that happens to be your name ;-) ) but I am looking for people who value and at least try to practice, integrity, trustworthiness, honesty and practicality.
I enjoy reading, occasionally writing poetry, cooking, intellectual conversation, great wine, and people who know how to honestly express themselves. My greatest dislike are liars, especially those who think no one knows they are lying - you really can't bullshit a bullshitter.
Movies are great, TV is the Devil, God is in the Music and I'll ditch work any time for a great hike.
I am a licensed massage therapist and my modalities incorporate Cranial Sacral, Sports Therapies, Shiatsu and Neuromuscular techniques. I'm in the process of learning Lomi Lomi! (No, I don't do happy endings and it's not even funny when you ask.)
Always remember; Some days you are the pigeon and Some days you are the Statue.
Who I'd like to meet: People who understand that only you can create your life by what you think. I don't mean that unrealistic glass half full/half empty bullshit. What you put in the glass is what matters most.
I am SOOOOO Pretty!!! Thanks for the compliment Sugar. Yes, that is Ross from Denver; looking rough and tumble and hotty hot. Need to explore your page and see what you have been up to. Been very busy with work. July/August is actually our busy time so lots to do. Loving it, though. Love my f-ing job!!
Thought about you today. Hope you are well. I am fabulous. IKEA is brilliant, just got back from SF PRIDE last week, Minneapolis is still rocking. Missing you.
Thank you for the love! We are excited, (I'm still in shock). Anyway i have started rolling the ball on the MS 150 event. I should have a letter send you way with in the week. Could you please send me updated e-mail and phone.
PayPal has a new competitor. But they're a bank, thus your account is FDIC-insured up to a grand. Until Thursday, the company is offering a free $25 if you sign up. You don't have to use a credit or debit card. Nothing to lose, 25 clams to gain.
So, I signed up. It's a genuine offer. My $25 was in there right away. This is not spam. Check it out.
Hey its that time of year again. If you are interested in volunteering agian this year for the MS 150 please send me your mailing address and I will mail the info to you.
