To be mindful, inspiring and kind
I love to explore life in search of 茅塞顿开 (máosèdùnkāi: "murky darkness suddenly opens; a sudden flash of insight and all is clear") and I aspire to share my findings with the rest of the world, in line with what one of my heroes, Buckminster Fuller, said: "Your significance will remain forever obscure to you, but you may assume that you are fulfilling your role if you apply yourself to converting your experiences to the highest advantage of others".
