2 cups of tea a day adds 6 years to your life, or so the research says. This is a group for energetic people who want to socialize and meet new engaging people over tea. This is not a sleepy afternoon thing either - we may meet during the day or night. Locations will be at tea spots in the peninsula or at volunteers' residences.

My purpose in creating this group is to create a space fo …

I saw a lot of mom-and-pop shops have popped up to discuss and teach spirituality. I also saw people in pain and their struggle in search of spiritualism. I've seen that pain closely in my life. Since I've worked on it for a long time, it became my moral responsibility to step in as an expert. I want to share my experience and knowledge with you. It's going to be a good deal for you. Before we start proceeding, we would also like to discuss some basic facts. Some of questions we'll ask would inc …

After doing a few competitive triathlons myself, a friend gave me the idea to create my own friends based, non competitive, "social" triathlon events. Unlike re …

I am an interspiritual minister who strongly believes that the right to define and restrict the officiating of same gender marriage does not belong to state or federal lawmakers, nor to the majority rule of any group of persons. The privilege and honor to officiate same gender weddings is a right and duty of the clergy as servants of God. I am seeking like-minded clergy of all faith traditions to meetup and share ideas about how we can support the LGBT community in moving forward with their marr …
