About Me

Shamsul
My name it means nothing, my age it means less as Bob Dylan sang in one of his ballads. I am a citizen of this planet and have tasted what life has to offer both in the east and West. I am an artist and then some, a buddhist practitioner and then some, a Muslim and a whole lot more than some. I live life in all its glory and decadence. My practice in life is to become the global rennaisance man. There is more to me than even I could imagine but I am satisfied in being who I am just an ordinary mixed up kid singing rudy toot-toot to the moon.
