About me: I wake up, pot some plants, do a couple cartwheels, make some music (by singing, playing harmonica, hand-drums, mandolin, toothpick jars, anything that makes a cool sound), teach my singers how to feel comfortable with their voices, read a bit, and call it a day.
I can only hope that I continue to feel the radiance of life for the rest of my days, that I keep trying to be a catalyst of creativity and that I continue to feel inspired.
Who I'd like to meet: NAMASTE: I honor the place in you in which the entire Universe dwells- the place of Love, Truth, Light and Peace. When you are in that place in you, and I am in that place in me, we are One.
"My religion consists of a humble admiration of the illimitable superior spirit who reveals himself in the slight details we are able to perceive with our frail and feeble minds." -Einstein
