I love phycedelic rock and for a current band they do it so well. Their videos are super creative and beautiful too.

It is better to have loved and lost than to have to stay with that psycho the rest of your life.
Honestly I relearn this often LOL

If you could only read 1 book for the rest of your life, what would it be and why?

Hi @khaleelkazi The book will be "The Alchemist"

What's your favorite quote and why is it meaningful to you?

"If in doubt, flat out" - Collin McRae, a legend in rally history
I think it's meaningful because it represents the true nature of motorsport, which revolves around wild driving and high speed adrenaline.

If you could travel to 3 countries tomorrow, which would you go to?

England
Italy
Spain

What's your favorite quote and why is it meaningful to you?

So now, less than five years later, you can go up on a steep hill in Las Vegas and look West, and with the right kind of eyes you can almost see the high-water mark—that place where the wave finally broke and rolled back.
Hunter S. Thompson

It really gives me a sense of the history, beauty and failure of the 1960s. He was a genius.

What is your favorite movie?

Surfer Dude because it is just so cool and optimistic!

What is your favorite exercise?

Burpees

Because they train every inch of your body in no time at all!

What is your favorite TV show?

South Park

Because the commentary is spot on in terms of what is happening in current events.

"Steemians take Tis Season" :) - Now its Done

What's your current favorite song and why?

Answer
It' Oceans (where feet may fail) by Hilsong.

Reason
It's a spirit uplifting song. It always reminds me of the greatness of God, His love to be the wind in my sail and it reminds me the faithfulness of God

Hello, @khaleelkazi

Here is a question.

If you are to choose between "fame" and "making impact" which will you choose and why?

@doris12

Favorite TV show:

Luxury Comedy

Because it is just so odd, excapist and British!

Answer of the question 4:
We all have two lives. The second one starts when we realize we only have one.

  • Tom Hiddleston

Its because when I feel bad,it helps me to get up and thinks about the second life.
