About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to keep the sparkle in my eye

ABOUT ME

Ok for serious, I have not updated this profile for about 6 years. Just to let you know. But I'm probably not that different anyway. :)

i am fun loving and silly and i just like to have a good time. also i'm a big nerd. i'd rather meet someone in real life than talk on the internet so i'm going to quit typing now.

PHILOSOPHY

"don't dream it, be it!" from the rocky horror picture show. yes i was a big musical theater geek in high school...

also, from roald dahl: a little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men!

and (i forget who said this): god will break your heart again and again and again until it STAYS open

and, relatedly (i also forget who said this): god is not a noun!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

i'd rather not separate the moments out like that... time is one big flowing river; clock-time only exists in our heads. there is a single dreamer, slumbering, and dreaming all of this up. some call this dreamer god. i don't know what to call it, but i know we are all part of the dream.

and the whole dream is amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

i can play guitar for you and sing if you want :) i like participatory life and art so we can build a bonfire and then all sing and dance together! i like to draw too. maybe i'll draw you a portrait. i totally can't cook (sorry!) but i'll buy you some wine.
