Bio




Buddha is love.





this is my simple religion. there is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness.
-the dalai lama



I am not exactly sure when it was that I decided to keep an online journal. All I know is that I did and it morphed and changed until I found a permanent home on LiveJournal. And even here on LJ, it has had several incarnations. I prefer to think of them as a chapter in my life closing and another opening. My name is Julie, and this is the current one. I am still learning how it is to live a somewhat peaceful coexistance with a mental illness so I talk about that alot. But I also talk about my life which is more than a mental illness. Welcome aboard if you are so inclined.
