I have been focusing my attention within areas that build and inspire me to become a stronger individual. I need to heighten my awareness, since when that raises in itself the world around you doesn't look the same way anymore.( "Seek not new lands, but new eyes." ) I love photography, along with film. Playing the guitar (electric) is fun. Writing/reading. I love authors like H.P. Lovecraft and Stephen King. Relating to spiritual matters, I strongly feel that all rivers lead to the sea, and that there are thousands of doors in the kingdom of heaven, many of which we can choose to enter. I deeply admire the masters of wisdom, such as Jesus the Christ, OSHO, Lao-Tzu, all of the Buddha's in history, and the rest whom taught powerful messages of wisdom, freedom and love. Nature is great. Climbing in the mountains, watching wildlife and looking at it all from a higher perspective. It is quite a change. Concerts, stage-shows, road trips, traveling the world, etc etc.....I just love living life with freedom!
Music
Music is a very powerful energy in this life, and I love tapping into it frequently. Some bands I enjoy are: Skillet, DJ Shadow, Kutless, Pillar, Falling up, The Myriad, Lucerin Blue, Hawthorne Heights, Chevelle, Dark New Day, 38th Parallel, Beloved, Floyd, Seger, the Used, Sevendust, LinkinPark, Trust Company, EastWest, Tait, U2, POD, Vincent Gallo,SkyWynd,LostProphets, Sum41, LazyBoy, Evanescence, BenjaminGate, Buckethead, Disciple, Day of Fire, SevenWiser, Senth Day Slumber, FingerEleven, The Cult, Strata, Emery, Kids in the Way, Finch, Further Seems Forever, AFI, UNKLE, LoPro, Memento, SubSeven, UnderOath, Hoobastank, DJ Krush,:::::rock, alternative, rap, hip-hop, classical, eastern~ I love it all. If it sounds good to me, I can enjoy it. Its as simple as that.
Movies
I LOVE movies. Particularly the reality ones, (Requiem for a Dream as an example.) Vincent Gallo is a genius. Tim Burton movies are fun, and Spielberg is full of memories. Requiem, Hero, The Passion, The Counte of Monte Cristo(Jim Caviezel is AWESOME), Pink Floyds The Wall, Buffallo '66 (GREAT movie):: I also enjoy watching horror flicks....they can be fun, putting you in touch with primal emotions..) Im not crazy about the "HollyWood Heavy" flicks. These conglomerations of massive doses of CGI, cheesy actors or actresses, and movies that are basically devoid of any sort of plot. These movies apparently dont thrive on the intelligence of the masses, quite the opposite.... Movies.... I love them. A fantastic medium for expression.
Television
I'm really not that interested in general television shows. Do you ever realize how much the everyday news promotes fear? It is also very deceptive, and we are hearing one side of the story, which leads to manipulation of the masses.
Besides, commercials suck.
Books
H.P. Lovecraft (the king of horror!), Steven King, Wayne Dyer, Stuart Wilde, OSHO, Ram Dass, Thicht Nhat Hahn, Keating, Bruce Lee, Lao-Tzu, Buddha, Jesus, Paramahansa Yogananda, Kahlil Gibran, Rumi, Dan Millman, Howard Storm, Ezra Bayda, Deepak Chopra :: I also love art books. You can open alot of doors through books, and it promotes thinking!! Read!!
Heroes
Heroes? I deeply respect and honor many people, especially those whom help to influence my development and personality. All of my family and friends whom made such great impacts on my life and still leave me with memories that come and go from my mind. Authors, Actors, Prophets, Saints, Sinners, Losers and the Winners. Like waves on the ocean, we may be of a different size, but - All waves are one and the same, ~Water~. So I derive my inspiration from so many different people that I wouldn't think to try and comprise a list here on this website. Ask me.
About me: To start with, let me emphasize the fact that I am a person who enjoys deviating from the norm. There is a multitude of carbon copied people out there straining to fit neatly into what would be deemed normal and acceptable by society. This does not paint a portrait of myself. I favor an intense level of freedom toward my pursuit of self-expression. I prefer to simply "Be" who I am, naturally and with authenticity.
I could also call myself a spiritual individual; one whom likes to philosophize and ponder the world around me. Please keep in mind that I am not religious. I do believe that there is quite a distinctive difference between Spirituality and Religion. Religion can be very stereotyped and it is restrictively laden with a bunch of rules and regulations. Spirituality is looking out at the world in a deeper way with an open mind. I also feel a great level of passion toward my Inner Power, Source, or God.
I love photography and you may see some of my work in the gallery here on Myspace. I also love film and music, it is driven with a powerful energy that manipulates our emotions into many different levels. Writing is another one of my specialities.
People may ask me, "What are you? Whats your style? What do you do as a job?" I don't place too much emphasis on any of these things, I defy the sterotype and I am striving to be an empty glass so I can be filled with something far more powerful than what the materialistic labels of our society can offer. I despise ignorance. Believe me, it is not bliss. It is anything but bliss. I ignore labels, for they usually derive themselves from ignorance. I have thrown my filing cabinet out the window, for it is proving to me useless.
So that sums this up for now. It is impossible to fully describe who I am on Myspace.com People are far deeper than merely the reflection in the water. So I'd suggest jumping in already before life burns you away with all of its miseries and stress. Think about what your time here in this body really has to offer you.
