About me: He who bends to himself a joy
Does the wingèd life destroy;
But he who kisses the joy as it flies
Lives in eternity's sunrise.
--Eternity, William Blake
Yeah, not quite sure what the hell I'm doing with my life. Taking a bit of a long vacation... dear friends, join me at the oasis. Call for details.
Who I'd like to meet: People who seldom complain they are "bored". People with a distaste for the popular reality of morning people. People who love nature and the outdoors as much as me. People who fear the hegemony of news anchor women. People who fall in love with people who love themselves. People not afraid to devise their own realities. People who understand the difference between contradiction and hypocrisy. People who are good with words and still know that words are overrated. People living honestly and spreading honesty like a contagion. People who can be a pain in the ass, but are outrageously, courageously, fantastically themselves.
