Tag…You’re It!

My good friend Ian over at Quantum Learning tagged me along with six other bloggers. Basically the tag is a blogger’s version of a chain letter. However, the rules are a bit different. Here are the rules:

 

* Link to your original tagger and list these rules in your post
* Share 7 facts about yourself in the post
* Tag 7 people at the end of your post by leaving their names and links to their blogs
* Let them know they’ve been tagged.

 

Even though I have a history of being a rebel (a peaceful one), I am abiding by the rules so here are 7 things you do not know about me:

 

1. I am a lawyer. Pretty shocking, huh? How many lawyers have a blog that deals with happiness? Trust me, not many. Add the vegan factor along with being green and a peace lover…that makes me odd, especially at the office.

 

2. I once dyed my hair black with orange stripes. I was in law school, I was twenty-five and in the midst of a mid-life crisis. I refer to that hairstyle as my tiger look. Needless to say, I stuck out!

 

 

 

 

3. During the midst of my mid-life crisis, I was initiated into a Buddhist order. And no, I did not have to shave my head…thank God!

 

4. I once was in a rock band. What can I say…I love getting lost in the rhythm of a song.

 

5. I have been writing for 19 years. It is one of my passions and I hope to be able to make a career out of it!

 

6. I really, really, really want a 17.1 inch MacPro Laptop. Steve Jobs, if you are reading this please grant my wish. Consider it a donation so you can write it off as a tax deduction!

 

7. I lived in India for 6 months in a little village that had an ashram. It was one of the most challenging times of my life but an excellent learning experience. (Below is a picture of Puttaparthi which is where we lived.)

 

 

 

 

 

Below are the seven blogs that I love and each of these people have been very nice to me. You all rock! Please know that there is no obligation to pass on the tag. So no worries if you choose to do nothing. There are three bloggers that deserve special mention although I cannot tag them because they’ve already been tagged. They are:  Ian who makes me laugh and a fellow believer in the importance of non-violence; Michael who also makes me laugh and is an example that men can blog about love and still be cool; and last but not least, Lisis who is my spirit sister and a very generous soul!
