About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To meet and explore

ABOUT ME

I study philosophy, and love people. I'm fascinated by the all the stories of human life out there, and the myriad of ways we explain this crazy life to ourselves. I care about what is right and good in this world... Peace and love, virtue and integrity. Hard to find in this broken world sometimes, but I know it's out there and I've found it here on CS.

Perhaps my deepest joy is meeting people. A friend is a powerful gift.

PHILOSOPHY

Moderation's the key.

And having a little patience goes a long way.

I believe that if you live with a little respect and you make your needs known, the universe will unfold at your feet. People respond to the humble cry of humanity.
