PHILOSOPHY

God is in Nature, Smiles, Humans. The middle path is the best way to live one's life. To wake up ready to accept new beliefs. To wake up and smile. To find the beauty in conversation, in poems, in literature, in art, in dance. To never limit the freedoms of someone else--at any rate. To not fear death, to dance the night away, and be willing to give up a night of sleep for anything.
