Newsflash: The Purpose of Life Isn't Eating
I’ve been thinking a lot about the purpose of life. About why we’re here – why I’m here. What is the reason of it all? What does it matter if we live or die? What does it matter if we are super thin or 50 pounds "overweight" (don't believe in such a thing, but let's...
Life in the Light
I want to live in the light. I want a life in the light with giving, serving and taking away other’s agony. I want a life in the light with rest, good music and cuddles in bed. I want a life in the light with love, sacredness and peace. I want a life in the light with...

Soundtrack Of My Life – Lyrics That Helped Me Through Tough & Happy Times
Music is like my daily dose of coffee: I couldn't live without it. Or maybe I could, but I definitely don't want to. Ever. Music has made the toughest, scariest and loneliest times of my life bearable and it's elevated every happy moment I've experienced. Music has...
