Meaning of Life:
Five-cent version: Eat, Drink and Be Merry!
A more profound take on my life philosophy:
'The Master does his job, then stops. He understands the Universe is forever out of control, and that trying to dominate events goes against the current of the Tao. Because he believes in himself, he doesn't try to convince others. Because he is content with himself, he doesn't need others' approval. Because he accepts himself, the whole world accepts him.' - Tao Te Ching
Five Things I Can't Live Without:
- Cuddling

- Pulled pork sandwiches (with coleslaw and sweet potato fries!)

On a beach with a tropical cocktail. Faint calypso music playing in the background. Lots of sunshine; subtle breeze. Can you dig it?
