| Introduction | I am a poet. I don't believe in making excuses and I believe in living with the passion of beginnings. I don't like to limit myself. Although some people can say it much better than I can, I trust in the uniqueness of each voice and the concept of sensitive dependance. I enjoy intimacy with God and desire more. Sometimes I feel stuck because I try too hard. The most difficult thing is to be completely at rest. I want to learn how to meditate without losing myself in the recesses of my mind. I am learning to experience a deeper prayer. I want to travel. When I write I feel my whole being expand. When I write I feel God's pleasure. I love Riesling and think it can be paired with anything. I live on the beach. My last addiction was coffee... now it's just desert or a rare pleasure. Ideal location for the body ...Cote D'Azur. True love is not afraid of giving itself with utter abandonment and vulnerability. My favorite painter is Caravaggio. I never want to stop learning. The creative act is crucial to being human. |
