CURRENT MISSION

dispel society's idea of beauty to create my own.

ABOUT ME

art is my passion. i run for clarity. i love animals, and books and wearing skirts. i love listening to peoples' stories. i miss the ocean something fierce. i adore how a starry night sky [away from the city] can make you feel so small.
i believe there is beauty in everyone and everything; sometimes you just have to look a little harder to catch a glimpse.

PHILOSOPHY

"to be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else, means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting."
e. e. cummings

Music, Movies, and Books

music? mostly anything but rap and metal. i've weak knees for oooold [1950's and earlier] music, though.
books? top three: the time traveller's wife, the book thief, and the alchemist.
