"Another world is not only possible, she's on the way and, on a quiet day, if you listen very carefully you can hear her breathing." - Arundhati Roy
I believe that a radically different form of human existance is possible- one based on mutual cooperation, love, and liberty. I can think of nothing else I want to work toward more in my life than the creation of such a world. I am eternally idealistic, yet realistic and practical. I believe vision and strategy can help overcome hopelessness and cynicism. AIM SN:resistance1986
Who I'd like to meet: beautiful people with beautiful minds. lovers. dreamers. revolutionaries.
Hi Brian! Just wanted to say hi and see what you've been up to. I know we don't get to see each other that often since I live over the bridge, but I'm hoping that maybe we could get over our bridgism and hang out for a bit at noon this saturday.
