CURRENT MISSION

balance responsibility and spontaneity

ABOUT ME

Travel-writing, mountain-loving, picnic-taking, grass-laying, coffee-drinking, cookie-making, snuggie-sporting type! I'd much rather be on my feet than on my bummms, and I average about 3 to 4 apples a day, which I realized recently, means that I eat over 1000 apples a year.. :O

PHILOSOPHY

Anyone who keeps the ability to see beauty never grows old.
-Franz Kafka

He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose.
-Jim Elliot

Interessen

When I feel strongly about things, I lose my coherency and begin to jabber on like a six-year old. I mention that because the flooding of all that is interesting flowing into my mind at the moment is bringing me to that state... AHH. I love. LOVE. the mountains. and skies... and how skies are clearer in the mountains. I also love fires, people, coffee- sitting around a fire with people, drinking coffee. Walks in the morning. You know, all that cheesy stuff.
