Ardor-AngelusdeAbeo's Friends

Bio

I'm a Spiritual Christian, a Peaceful Warrior, a writer, a fighter, a worker, a thinker, a healer and a hero. I am like everyone else, with the same ability to choose between selfishness and pedestrianism, or generosity and spiritualism. I like to think I lean to the latter, but I'm not perfect. I laugh, I cry, I triumph, I brood, I accept and I rage. In a word, I'm human. I am as beautiful as everyone else, with the same capability for grotesqueness as everyone else. I am change, I am a voice, I am an image, I am an ideal, I am a moment. I am me and I am you. I am excited to join this community and I look forward to fighting for change and hope and freedom with you.

Skills and talents

I'm a massage therapist with a gift for energetic manipulation which I use in my healing profession. I'm a Gungfu and Qi Gong instructor, trained in Tai Chi, Xing Yi, Tong Bei and some Ba Gua. I'm also a Pilates instructor and I use my other sets of skills to help my clients get the most out of their bodies, and thusly their lives, as I can. I'm also writing a book in order to share with others my gift for recognizing patterns in reality so that we can all become more self-empowered and can affect real change in the world.
