Introduction How can 1 summerize 1self in a box like this? Well, what can I say, I'm a curious individual that's reached the age of 24 & I'm grateful for every experience that I have had to endure to become the person I am today. I do not regret anything that I have done, said or had to go through, because I wouldn't be who I am today if it wasn't for those actions/words. I love life! As much as it gets tough sometimes & we get caught up in the midst of it all, life is truly a beautiful & phinominal experience & should be lived as such! No matter how difficult it seems at times, when u find the courage & ability to step back and take a look at the whole picture you realize how unimportant those challenges that we call "problems" & obstacles really are... Completing my formal education & moving on to bigger & better things that life has to offer has been 1 of the most challenging but gratifying times of my life.
Interests There is so many...I love life itself and anything that's got creativity and passion to it. I love art, architecture, history, music, movies, dancing, languages (I'm planning on learning Spanish and Italian)...nature, animals...people, philosophy, reading, writing...poetry...to name just a few... =)
Favorite Movies Forest Gump - a classic, Green Mile, Freedom Writers (An amazing movie, powerful...everyone should watch this movie!!!) Crash (Best Movie Ever Made), Pursuit of Happyness (very powerful) and I'm probably forgetting a 100 other great movies... About me - cont'd: Circumstances that life put me through in the past few months have proved to be extraordinary, because it is thanks to them that I feel like I have been re-born into my life once again. Only this time it is all crystal clear to me & it all makes perfect sense! Now I know who I am & what I want & why I chose to come to this planet & what my true calling is. Having been enlightened with this knowledge helped me to outline my goals in life, and having goals keeps me focused every moment of my life. Keeping my life goals in the back of my mind at all times, I make a conscious decision every moment of my life to put the neccessary effort to live Life One Day At A Time..andf truly enjoy every single moment of each day to the fullest...It is unfortunate that we tend to take life & people that are dear to us for granted, which leads to misery. I chose NOT to be put into that category of people and I see the difference that this kind of attitude brings every day. It is called the Attitude of Gratitude.
Favorite Music Depending on the mood...I pretty much listen to anything that's got a good rythm and melody. Varies from top 40, euro, trance, R&B, hip-hop to classical, jazz/blues etc
Favorite Books Since reading is a essential to my sanity, I'll just name a few of the authors that have changed my life or inspired me in one way or another. Neale Donald Walsch, Bob Proctor, Paolo Coelho, Khaled Hosseini (Kite Runner), Don Miguel Ruiz, Esther & Jerry Hicks, Gay Handricks, Malcolm Gladwell & Eckhart Tolle to name just a few...I'll keep on updating this list as I discover new & inspiring authors...
