Food should be an interest category. POOF!

avocados (obviously), cilantro, macaroni & cheese, pizza, lamb shawarma, lasagna, and just bacon in general. (Hard to believe I was a vegan for years!)

About me:
I'm pretty busy trying to live authentically, usefully, humbly and fully, more in conscious contact with the divine. This is an ongoing and enriching process which excites and infuriates me daily. I welcome and appreciate company on this journey.
Bio: Grew up on Bleecker St. — lived on the streets from 15, eventually did some stuff, like writing and editing for some magazines, helping run several national political parties, raising sheep in rural Maine, almost becoming a Benedictine monk, designing software, DJing, making videos.
Today, I write and cherish an amazing group of friends who help me enjoy life in a way I've never known before and for whom I hope I am occasionally useful.
Quote of the week:
You make light from dark
Illuminate my heart
It started with a spark
And now I'm consumed
I know that it's Your will
So I'm going to shine until
I'm a city on a hill
and they can see you
And know you
And know you inside
-- Krystal Meyers, Fire
Who I'd like to meet: I absolutely insist on enjoying life, so I'd like to meet whoever will bring me closer to truth, closer to love, closer to honesty, closer to beauty -- people who mean it when they hug. My friends help me in all these every day, and I'm always open to discovering new companions along the road. I love being with people it's easy to be with, where I can be silent or blabber and both are OK. And I love being with people who challenge me to grow.

I was going for a snake, but my hood to the costume didn't stand up right, so people kept guessing I was an alien... so, the photo was kind of like a alien-meets-mennonite thing.
