Silence

The more I live the more I understand what I like and what I don't and well I must say it's liberating to know the difference. What I do like is silence.

Growing up I was a latch-key kid living as the only child in my household.  I always felt the need to have the tv on to keep the apartment from being so damn silent. I wanted to feel like I wasn't alone and adding the noise of a television seem to give me that feeling that I was surrounded by life. If it wasn't the tv then it was the radio but something had to be going or else the mood just wasn't right.

I guess it took a whole lot of unwanted noise throughout my life to understand the true meaning of silence and what it means for one's peace of mind. Now I enjoy every moment of silence I can find as if it were something to be cherished..and it is. I am never bored, with every moment I find something to do,think or write. But in silence is where I find ME waiting patiently to be heard.

Quiet the world, you deserve to be heard by YOU.

Lightening in a Bottle

THis past May I attended an outdoor clothing,food and music festival in Irvine, CA. It was called Lightening in a Bottle and it happens annually in different parts of the western region. It was an amazing experience and my first time camping in the rough. The energy was great and there were lots of activities ie, yoga, meditation and seminars.

While there I had the chance to unwind, see some garments from new designers, eat some healthy food, listen to some great music and skip a few rocks in the nearby lake. IT was a great way to spend a quick 4 days and I'd suggest everyone attend at least once in their lifetime.

Here are some pics from this summer's event.
