About Me
I'm an artist, mala-maker (Buddhist prayer beads), and practitioner. I joined BeliefNet because I want to reach out to people who are looking for deep meaning in their lives. I want to see what they have to say, and I want to share my mala-making (those are Buddhist prayer beads) and writing about life and art on the spiritual path.
