Interests and Activities: I love to write poetry, articles and like writers around me who have the same thoughts. We have to learn to settle for small things, and be at peace with oneself and the world and cultivate a positive attitude despite the misery, poverty and wars in this world. I like people who pray to the Gods of Little Things, for in life you have to be at peace with your inner self and the outside world. I am happy to breathe, enjoy the endless blue sky, the clouds and flowers (Nature) and people who give you a genuine, honest to goodness smile. You are talking and communicating even if you just smile in a tram, in the subway, in a park or whereever. Smile awhile, and when you smile, another smiles, and then there are miles and miles of smiles. And life is worthwhile, because you smile. I made an introverted, old German warrior from World War II smile with the passage of time, and now he even greets me. He does not greet others though. Too many negative memories from the last war, sleepless traumatic nights, he is 'finished with this world,' he says. I like writing poetry and articles in the internet and doing book projects, anthologies, videos etc.
