.about me.

"I laugh, I love, I hope, I try, I hurt, I need, I fear, I cry. And I know you do
the same things too. So we're really not that different,
me and you."
- Colin Raye

I am told by my wiser half that restricting yourself to a definition or description is damaging to one's spiritual identity, labelling and freezing in time the most fluid of all things -- the soul's infinite evolution. And yet, here I continue.

This "about me" summary you're reading is simply another helpless attempt at rolling myself into neat little paragraphs so that I could be somewhat understood and relatable. I wonder why so many people feel the need to scream at the top of their lungs to explain, defend, and protect the person they are... to slot themselves, to categorize themselves in labelled boxes...

I could tell you my birthdate, I could fill you in on my past experiences, I could even share with you my values and beliefs. But I seem to prefer questions asked rather than answers given. You see, questions are instant inquiries... a question mark blinking in one's mind, and when the question is answered instantly it's the most truest response. I cannot predict what questions people have about me and I can't answer them accurately unless I'm there at that precise moment. And also, I cannot assume everyone (or anyone) is interested in my mind. I am not a Goddess with flocks of people bowing down at my feet begging for answers to life's grandest questions or wishing to know my every thought and action so they, too, can walk in my footsteps. No, no, no... I am Mona. A simple girl wanting to learn about people, the world, and about herself. My mind flourishes every time I recieve new insight and I am eager to live and experience each and every aspect of living. I, Mona, am a question-asker, not an answer-giver... because I am clueless just as the next person... and just like you, a student in this very enriching world...
