More About Me

Location: Austin, Texas

Occupation: Nationally Certified Massage Therapy Instructor

My Philosophy On Life: The purpose of life is to live it, to take experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience.

My Interests: Education, therapeutic massage, psychology

My Inspirations: People who have a humanitarian heart

Quotes I Love: Beauty is not in the face; beauty it is in the light of the heart.

Since love grows within you, so beauty grows. For love is the beauty of the soul.

Speak and act with a pure mind and happiness will follow

All of our yesterdays are summarized by our now, and all the tomorrows are outs to shape.

The beautiful souls are they that are universal, open and ready for all things.

A person who cares about earth will resonate with its purity.

Life is a celebration of awakenings, of new beginnings and wonderful surprises that enlighten the soul.

The quieter you become, the more you are able to hear.

The purpose of life is to live it, to take experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience.

Live in your heart.

The ability to simplify means to eliminate the unnecessary so that the necessary may speak.

"Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison of selfishness by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole nature in its beauty. Nobody is able to achieve this completely, but the striving for such achievement is in itself a part of the liberation." –Albert Einstein

“Maintaining order rather then correcting disorder is the ultimate principle of wisdom.To cure disease after it has appeared is like digging a well when one already feels thirsty.” From the Chinese Medical Classic, Nei Jing.

The place to improve the world, is first in one's own heart and head and hands, and then work outwards from there. - Robert M. Pirsig

"What you leave behind is not what is engraved in stone monuments, but what is woven into the lives of others." - Pericles

"It is a glorious destiny to be a member of the human race. . . . Now I realize what we are. And if only everybody would realize this! But it cannot be explained. There is no way of telling people that they are all walking around shining like the sun." – Thomas Merton

As the rose blooms amidst thorns, so great souls shine out through all opposition. Hazrat Inayat Khan

If the doors of perception were cleansed everything would appear to man as it is: Infinite. - William Blake

May you experience each day as a sacred gift woven around the heart of wonder. - John O'Donohue

I never imagined that the greatest achievement of my life would be peace of mind. – Anonymous

At times our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person. Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us. - Albert Schweitzer

Deepak Chopra, as he talks about how rich in hormones and biologically active the skin is, explains that, "when we stimulate the skin, we can cause, literally, a shower of healing chemicals into our blood stream."

"In the depth of my soul, there is a wordless song." Kahlil Gibran

I believe in all that has never yet been spoken.
I want to free what waits within me
so that what no one has dared to wish for
may for once spring clear
without my contriving.
If this is arrogant, God, forgive me,
but this is what I need to say.
May what I do flow from me like a river,
no forcing and no holding back,
the way it is with children.
Then in these swelling and ebbing currents,
these deepening tides moving out, returning,
I will sing you as no one ever has,
streaming through widening channels
into the open sea. -Rilke
