自我介绍

Sometimes a song can sum things up so well. Sara Groves' " Add To The Beauty" really speaks of my heart and soul as an artist/designer; and as one who's been humbled and filled with gratefulness and new perspectives in my messy glorious story that's unfolding. --- Anyways... here's some snippets about me: I LOVE good stories - in books, movies, plays, and conversations with fellow authentic journeyers; hikes in nature, travel adventures - esp discovering off -the- beaten- path sights, swing dancing, mediterranean/middle eastern food, good cheeses, chocolate, wine, music; clever improv comedy, art and whimsy in nearly every form. And... before it became "in" I've been passionate about giving new creative life to old/found objects - ya know --- the whole repurposing/upcycling thing. --- On more serious note I am also super interested in pondering out how justice and mercy coexist and am active volunteer as advocate for mental health education/support, stigma busting and wholistic approaches to life. --- here's song lyrics - or better yet hope you can listen to it. :) ADD TO THE BEAUTY We come with beautiful secrets We come with purposes written on our hearts, written on our souls We come to every new morning With possibilities only we can hold, that only we can hold Redemption comes in strange places, small spaces Calling out the best of who we are And I want to add to the beauty To tell a better story I want to shine with the light That's burning up inside It comes in small inspirations It brings redemption to life and work To our lives and our work It comes in loving community It comes in helping a soul find it's worth And this is grace - an invitation to be beautiful This is grace -- an invitation....
