life is truly AMAZING when knowledge is sought after and obtained. I still love: pandas and shih-tzus and doglike kitties, self-sufficing communities and business coalitions, self + elle + sportswear int'l magazine, lush forests, tropical waters, powdery snow, roughin it thru the wilderness (as long as its not the desert - the desert element and me just dont mix, pls dont ask me y i live in la). being around people in 3rd world countries -- it gives one SUCH perspective - uh, yes we do indeed give such meaning to the meaningless on a regular basis - the 1st step is admitting u have a problem. omniscience - its not that I know all, but a lot has been revealed to me; I'm very intuitive and I enjoy being that way, snowboarding, EXERCISE is the antithesis to all evil!! I'm fucken serious - it starts out slow but sooner or later u change ur diet and unhealthy ways then u start turning into a monk - its awesome! in that non-instant kinda way...and all forms of writing, professional and otherwise...what can I say - I just love to express myself!

"We rise at dawn to greet the day with the lotus position and the 'Breath of Dragon'. Breakfast is a shallow bowl of humble grains, primarily homily and sorghum. Afterward, we assemble that days Wall street Journal, WWD and Apparel News Daily on a small altar, and sacrifice them by burning. While their cinders rise to the heavens, we chant a prayer to Karlag, the white-haired Hindu god of fashion, to send us enlightenment and guide our hands in the sketching of many fine garments." -Josia Lamberto-Egan

"Doc was a dentist whom necessity had made a gambler; a gentleman whom disease had made a frontier vagabond; a philosopher whom life had made a caustic wit; a long lean ash-blond fellow nearly dead with consumption, and at the same time the most skillful gambler and the nerviest, speediest, deadliest man with a gun that I ever knew." - Wyatt Earp

I am for the most part, a down-to-earth, intelligent, vivacious person. I am really proud of my life. I've made it thru a lot of challenging things without much help from my family because they live abroad. I have tons of valuable insight but I also know how to LIVE IT UP and have amazing fun! I love travel, learning, being productive, discussing world affairs and cultural phenomenons, creative music, dancing and truly conscious, spiritually inclined people cuz they r the best things 2 b around!
I also own a clothing line and an internet retail clothing store for women, so a lot of my energy goes into running my companies these days.
It took a lot for me to hammer out the structure I needed for my projects - it requires sacrifice and conscientiousness. I really believe in going within and asking both God and yourself what u truly want out of life and not conforming to other people's expectations - thats how i've found all my keys to true happiness! I don't believe that God would have given us free will if all he wanted were robots of the Divine Order. And if you don't decide exactly what you stand for, you can and will be led astray from your own destiny.
My main interest in life is being a friend to the lonely people in this world who feel like no one understands them. I intend to reach them thru a film I am producing and with my clothing.
Ultimately I intend to be a big philanthropist once I have a platform for propagating helpful knowledge and proven tactics that help the needy and hopeless, both here in America and abroad.
IF YOU USE DRUGS, THIS IS WHAT YOU ARE SUPPORTING.
Who I'd like to meet: Entrepreneurs, people with their own style, people who are uncharacteristically unsuperficial, sweet people, funny people, knowledgeable people, people who r stronger than their egos, people who can handle a 'winter' - à la Michael Tsarion. All in all I find people with these qualities the most interesting and enjoyable to be around: intelligence, open-mindedness, savior faire when it comes to matters of the heart, independence from addiction, an acknowledged less than advantageous set of formative years - HAVE YOUR ISSUES OUT WHERE I CAN SEE THEM PLEASE, compassion, street skills, disinclination towards denial and good taste in music.
Failure is the best part of success. They are like yin and yang; you can’t have one without the other. So learn to celebrate your failures. Truly successful people even say they are successful because they have failed more than anyone they know. They keep trying and each time it doesn’t work, it’s just a learning experience. So, go out there, Fail, Learn, Succeed. Fail, Learn, Succeed. Say it with me now, Fail. Learn.. Succeed!!!
Put it this way, you CANNOT get hung up on when something doesn’t go your way. If you stay fixated on the failure, then you cut off the other two steps: Learn and Succeed. Fight the temptation to dwell on the failure with EVERYTHING you’ve got. Get excited about failing! Then Learn, Then Succeed!!!
