Sofie Reed

I am present here as a Fellow Human Being; a creature amongst many on planet Earth. Carl Jung’s Character Sorter classifies me as a "Counselor Idealist"; a Mahatma Gandhi “type”... I grew up in Ludvika, a small town in the province of Dalecarlia, Sweden. In 1987, as Sofie Swedjemark the “maiden wild child” I traveled to the U.S.A. I liked it and found myself an immigrant... I'm "in it" for the cause of good deeds. I do not believe in “Life and Death” I believe that we come and go.. therefor it’s good to REALLY pay attention while “traveling through”.
