CURRENT MISSION

one person can make a difference when he/she is being backed by several millenia of redemptive trends.

ABOUT ME

Not sure how I would objectively describe myself. So I'll just say I'm hugely idealistic, but still hugely practical too! Have many dreams to accomplish in the next 5 years and the rest of my lifetime. I'm not sure how it all pans out but I know it'll be good! I consider myself friendly, easy-going and enthusiastic about most things.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow. Don't walk behind me, I may not lead. Walk beside me and be my friend and..

..yes: i'm an idealist. the world is what we make of it. why not make it the best we can?
~~
yes: i am a libertarian. "truth" is bigger than you and i, and surely can't be dictated from someone else's perspective. never let someone else impose their context on you --- it just doesn't work.
~~
yes: i am post-modern. and maybe you're more post-modern than you think. i hold a high value in being able to de-construct the world-view models we live in, so that we can finally start to see things clearly.
~~
yes: i am an optimist. i know that's offensive to some, but i guarantee nothing will change if we don't try.
~~
above all that though, i am me. i am not defined by a group or a cause...
~~
yes, i am going to change the world.
~~
yes, 1 person can make a difference when he/she is being backed by several millenia of redemptive trends.
~~
and yes: i live by a single simple motto ---
restore love.
