I was raised Catholic most of my life but have been blessed to know many great and loving people from all religions and spiritual believes. I like to keep an open mind about religion and not believe that one is better than the other. There is beauty in all of human kind and we have to love and respect each other equally.
No matter what religion you are spiritual wisdom is always good, for me at least. This weekend I took some time to reflect and visited the largest Samadhi Buddha Statue in the United States. Hidden on the edge of Kingston, New Jersey, the 30 foot statue of Buddha sitting in meditative position (Samadhi) sits on the grounds of The New Jersey Buddhist Vihara and Meditation Center. Visiting the statue is free and open to the public just remember to respectfully take off your shoes when visiting.

AuthorPlain and simple, I'm painfully the artsy type. I like to keep my mind occupied because it keeps me out of trouble. I love art, photography, music and the 1940's. Between art exhibits, photography projects, design work, developing and promoting my new upcoming line the "LuvSicks", dressing up in early 40's vintage clothing for WWII living history events and endlessly researching the 40's home front and women's fashion to help educate the audience, and dusting off my drum sticks once in a while, I am endlessly busy. In a nutshell I draw silly pictures, shoot pictures, and play dress-up. In a nutshell I guess I never grew up. In a nutshell I guess I'm just a nut! Archives
