we evolved from peoples who lived off the land, to peoples who began to record art and writings, consciousness was able to be shared and recorded, With the technologies of an information age, people are able to learn about the diverse cultures of the world, and understand that although there are differences among beliefs or traditions, there is a commonality for peoples of all cultures to try to explain a supernatural understanding of who we are, a way of living life as 'human perfection'. evidence of philosophies such as yoga, arevedic medicine, natural healing of chinese medicine, and shamanism of aboriginal peoples - Various ethnicities and peoples have grown along with the traditions of their cultures and heritage, often being carried through philosophies, music, art and oral story telling. Today, with technologies and writings, each ethnicity and culture can be appreciated and celebrated for the diverse perspective and festivals that they bring to the world.

recognizing that cultures of the world can unite through festivals and events such as the Olympic games because it brings people of diverse cultures together, while being able to celebrate passion and dreams of the human spirit. Using the symbolism of the torch, as a symbolism for culture, I am titling my vision as ‘Celebration of Culture: United Spirit’.

Since being out west, I have experienced stories and legacies to be shared, remembered and celebrated. I am happy to be here, creating and working with stories, film editing, organizing of myself and my ideas in which I can write and share understanding through artistic works while aiming to inspire all that I have come to appreciate about our world, who we are, who we can be and the beautiful cultural experiences that can be experienced when we choose to consciously take part in our own lives and the world around us.

Indigenous culture

Peoples living among nature
before cement built cities, and city life sped up the lives of many people
Peoples lived in harmony with nature
understanding their connection with the land among which they lived.

communities of countryside still thrive through out the world, and these people understand where their food comes from, yet for many people who live in cities, their food is brought to them and bought within a framework of stores.
It is important to remember where food comes from, that the nutrients we need, comes from nature; land that feeds us from seeds, herbs, plants.
It is important to remember that the water we need comes from our ecosystems working among our land, filtered through our rivers and streams.

It is important to remember where we've been
and where we are now.
Aboriginal people lived in communities that thrived through living in harmony nature while celebrating their lives through music and dance, celebrations of their culture.

Since they were encountered by explorers, they have endured hardships, while striving to maintain a remembrance of their culture, identity and sacred connection to the land.

Although the cityscape of modern day has brought us a world of technologies, art and culture that can be appreciated, it is important to allow ourselves the time to learn about indigenous cultures. Understanding their culture was interfered with and they went through pain is an offering of respect. Remembering that their way of life of respecting each other and living off the land, in harmony with nature is to offer respect for their culture and learn that we too need to remember who we are through recognizing our connection with the land, and respect for the diverse cultural identities of the world.


Our world is a world of diverse peoples, expressed and shared through diverse cultures.
The remembrance and appreciation of all cultural identity offers ourselves experience to enjoy traveling and celebrations of festivals.

Through recognizing our shared experiences of life evolving and cultures merging, we can appreciate technologies of modern day that allow us to experience our diverse culture and heritage, - yet we live with respect and reverence for nature. Indig. harmony with nature.

-why is their a farm-so useful for children, having discussion of being taken out of the city?
-why are the rivers, which are the source of life, and aboriginal reference to 'cleansing spirit', being considered as 'owned by corporate?'

+ talents, skills and hobbies

I am a photographer and videographer who loves to capture moments in nature, moments in cultural experience; moments that inspire.
I love playing sport, getting fit, and spending time outside; a few favourites are tennis, skiing, waterskiing, throwing a football, house dance and exploring various kicks and movements of martial arts.

My life talents, skills and hobbies are a testimony of my sincere passion to share who I am while inspiring people to understand and value heritage, culture, natural, healthy living while getting to know themselves and being inspired to develop their passion and potential.

+ I am a documentarian filmmaker who is very passionate about sharing who I am and what I've come to understand about myself, and the world around me. I engage myself in community events and festivals, maintaining a 'finger on the pulse of the city', so that I am aware of what I would like to attend in order to further learning and documentary stories. While gaining footage and interviews, I edit into videos of awareness and inspiration.
I love all forms of the arts, being creative and living a life in which I engage myself in activities of music, dance, sport, and being social. I truly value spending time with family and friends, as well as opportunities to meet new people and make connections.

I moved to Vancouver to explore the city and create a film about 'journey across a multicultural nation on the way to the common culture of the olympics'. Since being here, the story has continually developed through the events I have attended, and the people I have met.
My goal for this year is to create a documentary that shares the journey I have been exploring through my travels and engagement within cultural events and festivals and to be able to show it when the torch is being passed through canada, and brought to vancouver.
At the same time my ambition is to continually gather ideas. Therefore, through visions and passion my goal is to further my career path of making films, sharing stories, writing understandings and: to inspire.

+
I have filmed a variety of festivals such as chinese new year, and events of cultural olympiad.
I have attended many wonderful events that have allowed me to be around children, inspiring them to learn about nature through events such as the UBC farm and earth day. This included interacting with them at drum circles, and asking them questions about what they gained from learning at the farm.
I am passionate about sharing awareness of the importance of maintaining our natural environment, knowing where our food comes from and therefore living natural, healthy lifestyles.

+ my fav. community project
Many of them were enjoyable and appreciated however a memorable one was 'Night Quest' at Pacific Spirit Park. This was an event for families, where there were activities that inspired appreciation for nature, our environment, and inspiring the desire to dream through fairy tale characters roaming the park and a light show to wrap up the evening.
It was inspiring to see children having the opportunity to explore mother nature through an event that brought people together to have fun while learning.

+ambitions and 10 yrs from now:

I love to experience and capture awareness of culture so I can create artistic communications; such as films, to share what I have experienced through my journey of appreciating cultural diversity.
My passion and ambitions in life range from sharing understanding of heritage, remembering ways of life that are in harmony with nature, living within sustainable, healthy communities and understanding philosophies of natural healing; all the while, inspiring people to live happy and healthy lifestyles through being active, knowing themselves, their bodies and their passions.
My ambition is to inspire people to get to know themselves while engaging themselves in their communities, and the world around them.
As I continually develop my passions of music, dance and creating visuals, I am building my career path as a filmmaker and artist of merit.


In 10 years, I see myself as a fit, healthy and happy 34 year old who has an internet following for my website that shares my travels of culture and awareness. My website has my photography, travel journals, book writings, films, and favorite clothing accessories available.
I am also an artist who travels with my artistic 'concert' of music, dance and visuals, of which share inspirational stories of cultural celebration and awareness of heritage.

====

I would say that all cultures come from diverse backgrounds, with each generation being influenced by the perspectives, beliefs and values that were passed down from the people that lived before them.

Through understanding our evolution we can learn to 'unfilter' our perspectives, so we can move beyond the opinions we have been taught through growing up in a society that has attempted to tell us what is right or wrong.

In regards to understanding an ideal of human perfection, religion, or philosophies have attempted to explain how we can live our human potentials and they often started because of a revelation of someone who sensed a spiritual experience. An enlightening experience of what you may choose to call, human perfection. Through the time and culture it was experienced in, people attempted to explain it, define it,... in doing so, restrictions of the experience or explanations -became institutionalized. Also, the writings of these perspectives and experiences were written by a few, and the stories recorded were often translated through word of mouth.
Either way, for some people, for some religions, this has left a feeling of superiority of, 'ours is the way' even thought the original message has perhaps been misunderstood, forgetting the spiritual connection of the original revelational experience.

In my understanding, there are many ways to describe spiritual understanding, and each person can explore various philosophies and traditions that they feel works for them.

Through my research into heritage and culture, I have come to understand that as we evolved from peoples who lived off the land, to peoples who began to record art and writings, consciousness was able to be shared and recorded, sometimes melded to fit pursuit of power for some people. With the technologies of an information age, the gap between a human ideal of perfection, related to 'hatred' is ever closing, because people are able to learn about the diverse cultures of the world, and understand that although there are differences among beliefs or traditions, there is a commonality for peoples of all cultures to try to explain a supernatural understanding of who we are, a way of living life as 'human perfection'. We are all on a Quest Home, for Truth, Love, Spirit and Understanding in our lives.

-----------------


To close the gap among what may be perceived as conflicting beliefs, we can recognize that that which may make us different, does not need to divide us. We can appreciate our cultural diversity.
Through sharing information of each of our cultures and traditions, we can unfilter biased perspectives of the past (ex, one religion feeling they are 'the way', for really, there are many descriptions of explaining a sense of the 'sacred', we can now choose for ourself.)
The evidence of philosophies such as yoga, arevedic medicine, natural healing of chinese medicine, and remembering shamanism of aboriginal peoples - being brought to streets of modern societies, shows that the world is uniting, able to move beyond conflicting perspectives.

Various ethnicities and peoples have grown along with the traditions of their cultures and heritage, often being carried through philosophies, music, art and oral story telling. Today, with technologies and writings, each ethnicity and culture can be appreciated and celebrated for the diverse perspective and festivals that they bring to the world.
