CURRENT MISSION

Spread the light to all the dark places I can possibly find.

ABOUT ME

All about me. My name is Wes. There are a lot of things in life that I'm pretty easy going about, including the weather, what I eat (but I'd rather eat something tasty), what I do while I'm with friends, and my work attire. That siad, there are a few things in life that I care tremendously about, and those are music, helping people who really need it, and spreading the love. As I'll probably post again somewhere in this profile, one of my favorite quotes was put to music by a singer named James Taylor. He said "shower the people you love with love, show them the way that you feel." I'm not a mushy gushy kind of guy, but I think its important to bring good energy, love, and genuine goodness wherever you go. I try to do it everyday and some days are better than others, but its important to me.

PHILOSOPHY

James Taylor said, "shower the people you love with love, show them the way that you feel."

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

There are too many to list here...but at the very top would be the view from the top of Volcan Maderas in Nicaragua. It's pretty spectacular, and if you get the chance and have the legs for it, take the 8 hour hike...it's worth it.

Teach, Learn, Share

I need to give this one some thought...
