About me: I have the spirit of a traveler, the eye of a photographer, the mind of a storyteller, the passion of an artist, and a well-grounded belief in myself that has already carried me a long way in this journey of life... and will continue to do so.
I enjoy travel immensely, where I often write and photograph. I feel compelled to experience various cultures of our world, whether by living in an environment (such as my four years living in London), or by taking long trips to faraway places (such as six weeks living with the Samburu tribe in Kenya). [ View My Work ]
I have a home in Portland (Oregon), but not too long ago lived in New York City for a year in order to pursue my long-time dream of studying documentary photography at the International Center of Photography. The world has opened wide, and I am a bundle of excitement!
Who I'd like to meet:
Empowered, self-enabled individuals who seek to deliberately create their life to be everything they want it to be.
Those with an enlightened, heightened, expansive view of the world and the life they exist in.
Vegans & Vegetarians who agree that eating animals is just not the right thing to do, for the animals or for this planet.
People with tales from amazing places, near and far.
There is a way that nature speaks. Most of the time people are simply not patient enough and quiet enough to pay attention to the story. The goal of life is living in agreement with nature.
Hey Toni! Well guess what, my fiancee (yes, i got engaged!) is driving towards OR as we speak! He is an AMAZING kirtanist, we're finishing up a CD together, check out Keshavacharya Das my # 1 friend on my top friends. He's in Bend on the 17th April & Portland the 18th! Maybe you could go? He's one of my fave kirtan singers :-) (even without being biased, honest!) Wait till you hear our new CD, it's lovely, he'll have it at his events. I couldn't join him on this tour :-( <3 xox
The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile, nor the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when you discover that someone else believes in you and is willing to trust you with a friendship. Let us be grateful to people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.
Hey Toni! Happy Vernal Equinox! It is so WONDERFUL that spring is here, especially with the colour delights of crocus purple and snowdrop white (not snow). Welcome to Spring, Y'ay! Thoughtfully, Cordelle.
"You have been telling the people that this is the Eleventh Hour, now you must go back and tell the people that this is the Hour. And there are things to be considered . . .
Where are you living? What are you doing? What are your relationships? Are you in right relation? Where is your water? Know your garden. It is time to speak your Truth. Create your community. Be good to each other. And do not look outside yourself for the leader."
Then he clasped his hands together, smiled, and said, "This could be a good time!"
"There is a river flowing now very fast. It is so great and swift that there are those who will be afraid. They will try to hold on to the shore. They will feel they are torn apart and will suffer greatly.
"Know the river has its destination. The elders say we must let go of the shore, push off into the middle of the river, keep our eyes open, and our heads above water. And I say, see who is in there with you and celebrate. At this time in history, we are to take nothing personally, Least of all ourselves. For the moment that we do, our spiritual growth and journey comes to a halt.
"The time for the lone wolf is over. Gather yourselves! Banish the word struggle from you attitude and your vocabulary. All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration.
Hi Toni, Thank-you for the energy of your add! May your expansive view of the world continue to expand as you walk your chosen path of enlightening. Warm regards beautiful light, Cordelle.
