Five Things Most People Don't Know About Me

I was tagged by David....  Here are five things most people (on Zaadz) don't generally know about me:

(1)  I won a hula-hoop contest when I was 10 (almost 2 hours straight until my mom made me quit because we were going to be late for church).  When no one is watching, I'm still known to hoop around my living room to good music on occasion.....

(2)  I am a lawyer, and, while we're on the subject of me winning contests, I also won the award for Best Oral Advocate in the Moot Court Competition while I was in law school (Obi, no comments please).

(3)  I like to indulge myself by eating a little somethin' sweet pretty much every day (usually a soy chai latte or some dark chocolate or an Uncle Eddy's vegan cookie (or two)).

(4)  My first meditation practice was when I was about 12 years old - I used to climb barefoot onto my horse's bare back, lay down on her, close my eyes and dream while she grazed around the pasture.  (That was one good thing about growing up in Nebraska!)

(5)  When it's cold outside, I looooooove snuggling up in front of a nice warm fire, especially in a cozy little cabin in Topanga.  :-)

Thanks for the tag, Beautiful B!  :)   I've ”Been There Done That“ - the 5 and then was challenged by maze to write another 157… so I did, in the comments section… crazy, I know!

I deeply admire #1 … I've not conquered that skill … yet! :)  {giggling} @ #2's instructions to Obi!!! 

So fun getting to know more about you!

I should've known that the beautiful and famous MsCapriKell would have done this already (and HOW) - loved reading your 157!  You are one groovy (and over-achieving) chick!

Hi Beth, that was awesome.  I knew you were a lawyer already because when I visited, you kept telling me that if I didn't stop harassing your boyfriend, you were going to sue me.  I did not, however, know about your moot oral award.  Congratulations!  Dave is a lucky man… but I suppose that's a moot point.

Too funny Matthew!

I didn't know about the best oral advocate contest either. Hmmmm! (filter engaged)
You are amazing to me no matter what contests you win or not.

I have to say though…. whoever you are snuggling up with in Topanga is one lucky guy. ;)

Beth, love of my heart, how do I respond to this?  Remember I was born in the dark ages.  Also, if I was really honest, no one would ever speak to me again.  For example, I once voted for a Republican.  Please forgive me.  I miss you and the rest of our Maui Sangha so much.  I miss you the most.  Hugs, John.

1. I was thrown out of my house for loving a Girl of my choice (who is now my wife) and we spend whole night in car.
2.I court marraige her against the wishes of her parents and with all the threats of Filmy style
3.Bedwetted till the age of 10
4.Got panic attack one year back and admitted to ICU with ECG changes but now alright without any symptoms of disease( for which generally people have to take psycatric medication for life) only by Mediatation and Positive thinking.
5. Have learnt one thing which is unique in my soul,s journey this life time that everybody you see ,experience, get, feel and even people respond by the way in your life is just the reflection of your thoughts because I was negative thinker I got panic attack as reflection of my thoughts and see negetivaty evberywhere and when I changed my thoughts I am alright without any problem and seeing everything with peace and abundance. One unique technique I want to tell everybody is when you wake up in the morning go before the mirror and smile for 5 minutes continuosly everyday and you will smile for all day .

3.Blake
