Sorry I used a number system from my own blog answers. Darina and any one else can answer the same questions there.
1. I am serious, funny, and egotistical.
2. I like, love actually, your passion and enthusiasm for sharing joyful and fascinating things you find. (For Darina - Joy Bringer)
3. I have matured, I hope and believe, to the point that I can only change myself and thereby change everyone and everything, however subtly or greatly, by effecting the overall field of the ONE.
4. However egotistical this sounds or is, I am actively pursuing Enlightenment. I believe this happens of its own accord but I pursue it nonetheless. Enough said there.
5. I have been a vegan and a carnivore. I will describe favorites from both. Vegan - Channa Masala very spicy with vegetable Korma, saffron rice, mint chutney, garlic Naan and a frosty beer typically Dos Equis Amber. Carnivore - Filet Mignon medium rare with bitter greens salad topped with Balsamic Vinaigrette complimented with a robust Cabernet Sauvignon. Bon Apetite.
6. The first thought is my kids. They are so beautiful. It sounds cliche but it isn't. And if that thought doesn't come then it's my wife naked. Big Smile!!! Full Body Smile!!!
7. I would build a solar-power rammed earth home near Big Sur California with an ocean view. I would watch my children grow, spend much more time with my wife, grow vegetables, walk around naked a lot, and listen to and talk with GOD constantly.
8. I would like to set the record for billboards and magazine ads that say LOVE ONE ANOTHER. If we have to have these things why can't more of them say something truly important. That is the goal of my company LOVE ONE ANOTHER.
9. Dive head first into the vibrantly alive void I glimpsed and recoiled from. Dissolve into the One-ness I believe but, as yet, do not KNOW that I AM. Sounds so egotistical from this side. Oh well, that's what I AM til I'm not.
10. Life and Living. It sort of carries me and informs me, directing me when I'm with it so to speak. Otherwise I'm suffering and uninspired. Oh yeah, I like tantric sex, booze, and rock and roll - those are pretty inspiring too. Smoke 'em if you got 'em. Yeeehaaaa!!!!
Can you describe yourself in 3 words? I am… truth, love, light
What do you like most about me? your wonderful, playful enthusiasm coming through my computer screen.

What record would you like to break and why? creating lasting peace
What is one thing you’d do if you were completely unafraid? Walk through this world with open arms and open heart, always.
What keeps you going, drives you, inspires you most? My belief that the unverse is beautiful place and I am alive to share my being.
1. I am me
2. Your lovely radiant shining Joy
3.One cannot change anything about anyone…..Nor would I want to even if it was possible.People will only change when and if they choose to.
4. I hear sounds in colors……for me colors sing songs…….For a long time I thought everyone heard this……Now I know not everyone does, and based on response from others when I have mentioned this……..I suppose it could be labeled “interesting”.
5.Fresh ripe papayas or fresh ripe figs
6. Everything just is
7.I would go to Bali, Tahiti, puerto rico, and Martinique in search of the perfect papaya……I would go on a vision quest with Don Miguel Ruiz………….I would live wherever I was.
8. I have no desire to break any record…….Why ? Because
9. I have had two near death expereinces….so I no longer fear death……so I no longer feel afraid.
10. What keeps me going? breath
What drives me? passionate life force energy…..full bodied Aliveness…….awake here now ness.
What inspires me ?Light in Darkness
Unity in duality…………and Love most of all.

Walk naked through the middle of the largest war currently happening with a rainbow wig on and a sign that says, “Your Tax Dollars Hard At Work!” Maybe I will even be playing a Butt Trumpet. I bet nobody kills anybody for a while. I say distract them with stupidity! Can't be any dumber than what they were doing already!

My Children, the Goddess who is my Wife, good health, a decent sense of humor, great beer, and the ability to be a perpetual Smart Ass!

We are yet to witness that fabulous FULL BODY SMILE – you may have to patent it to protect it! ☺ And that dream naked house of yours, I am signing up for lessons with Mark if needed even in India so that I/we can all be teletransported there to indulge in all those delicious meals you described.
Katherine, I want to join you for that vision quest and the search for the perfect papaya and I even have an idea where we can find it! Erik Erik, Erik, your Highness Naughtiness and Kindness!

Your enthusiasm
If you could change smth about me, what would it be?
I don't know much about you, but I can't imagine wanting to change anything. :)

Anything Mexican.

I love it when I see children being kind to each other.
Where would you go/live if money was not an issue?
I'd travel to Spain, Greece and Italy, then I'd buy a huge plot of land in the midwest United States with woods, a pond, a stream, a greenhouse, big vegetable garden, herb garden, orchards, and a big victorian farmhouse.
What record would you like to break and why?
I don't care about that stuff.

Quit my job and travel.

Love.
What fun! This is much easier than creating a bio….
Can you describe yourself in 3 words? Not really, but I’ll try….
I am outspoken, crafty and sensible (most of the time!) The best that can be said of me is that I’m low maintenance.
What do you like most about me? I like that you’re ballsy enough to put yourself out there! It’s difficult to adopt people as friends, not knowing what reactions will be, especially in this type of forum. I always hesitate and I admire your tenacity.
If you could change smth about me, what would it be? Well, I would encourage you to follow your bliss wherever it would lead you. Something I’ve learned in the short time I’ve been living…. we’re never ‘done’. There’s always room for improvement.

What is the first thought that will make you smile? Thinking of unjobbing myself and my family!

What record would you like to break and why? It’s not a record per-se. I would say that I would like to write a best selling novel that would help people to live the best that they possibly could. An instruction manual for life - that actually worked!
What is one thing you’d do if you were completely unafraid? I would wear bikinis.
What keeps you going, drives you, inspires you most? Learning inspires me the most. I want to know everything and I know I never will, but just feeding the need through soaking up information is enough to get me through another day.

I'm Listening to One Day Deep by Praful on the album Enjoy 1!
Barb, I want to raise a toast for and with you (your choice of drink), melt some delicious dark bittersweet chocolate with Thea and then to top it off try the hottest tacos we can find with SethD8!
And since 'unjobbing' and venturing in Italy seems like a common theme in our minds (me2), I suggest we either become completely unafraid and go for it or at least have SethD8 teleport us there with his amazing art and music…
