" Like a true Nature's child, we were born, born to be wild." -Mars Bonfire
A hippie at heart. I have always been very open minded. I believe in peace, love and freedom. I am disgusted by war and hate. I can not imagine wanting to inflict pain on another person, I don't believe I have that right. I can not relate to people that do not feel empathy or have sympathy for those less fortunate. I believe that we are all equal. I love almost all people, whether I know them or not. I am willing and eager to fight for what is right. I always side with the underdogs, it's just my nature. If I see somebody in trouble or in pain I will always try to help them, I can not stop myself. I do not believe in status. Money does not impress me. I believe I can relate and find common ground with nearly every person on the planet. Life is too short to be serious; I find humor in most situations. I do not believe in being proud of circumstances beyond our control, e.g., the country and town in which we were born. I feel blessed to be an American and support the people that are willing to sacrifice their lives for our freedom. I want to see the world and meet people from every nation and walk of life. I wish that everybody was born into a family as loving and supportive as my family. I believe that every person has something positive to offer the world, whether they acknowledge and attain this is another story. I do not measure a person's intelligence based on their education. I do not like to hurt people's feelings, but I am one of the most protective people on the planet; I tend to say mean things when I feel somebody needs my protection. I am very honest and vocal. I love to make people feel good about themselves. I could be more patient. I tend to freak out if I am around people all of the time. I enjoy spending time alone reflecting on life and what I can do to better myself. The news gives me terrible anxiety, because I do not believe that people deserve the pain that they endure. There is nothing worse than seeing a person in pain. Politics and religion are personal to me, I do not share those beliefs with everybody in fear that I will offend another person. Had I been born under different circumstances I realize my beliefs may be completely different. One of the hardest lessons to learn growing up was that regardless of how much I love someone they may not ever love me back, not even as a friend. I do not believe in perfection, though I am very particular about a lot of different things. I realize and understand that my opinions and beliefs will always be changing and that I am no more than a walking contradiction. This is my life and I was born to be me, wild and free!!
The April Fashion Photo Shoot was inspired by the hippie movement. The 1960's counterculture has always fascinated and inspired me. I was the stylist, make up artist and model. Alison Hamar, my younger sister, was the photographer for the shoot. All of the pictures were taken on Palomar Mountain.
"Do your own thing, wherever you have to do it and whenever you want. Drop out. Leave society as you have known it. Leave it utterly. Blow the mind of every straight person you can reach. Turn them on, if not to drugs, then to beauty, love, honesty and fun." -Myron A Marty
"The 60's were a leap in human consciousness. Mahatma Gandhi, Malcolm X, Martin Luther King, Che Guevara, Mother Teresa, they led a revolution of conscience. The Beatles, The Doors, Jimi Hendrix created revolution and evolution themes. The music was like Dali, with many colors and revolutionary ways. The youth of today must go there to find themselves." -Carlos Santana
"Go confidently in the direction of your dreams, live the life you've
always imagined." -Henry David Thoreau
"All I'm gonna do is just go on and do what I feel." -Jimi Hendrix
