***Goodness Gracious! It’s already mid 2025!

Ok uhhh updates….I’m still travel all over the US every couple months working as a travel nurse! I still travel when i can with my last trip being out to Athens, Greece in May.
I changed my Instagram name to @Travel.state.shawn
I’m still very active in the gym. (Currently lean bulking)
My interest in Philosophy, science, geopolitics, and literature/poetry are still strong.
Also I’m still very much a Trekie🖖🏾 and a 90s and 2000s anime head. Especially the toonami and adult swim classic. I don’t watch many movies or Netflix etc, but i would highly recommend the Indie classic movie called “Waking Life” released in 2001.
It’s a cool different dive into existentialism and lucid dreaming. 🤓 Current books I’m really into are: Unreasonable Hospitality, The Happiness of Pursuit, The Story of my Life, The Truth About Magic, Outwitting the Devil, The Essential Rumi, The Book of the Five Rings, The House of God, and All of the Foundation Series by Asimov!

Hopefully that a decent update! Best travel wishes to everyone, Keep Exploring. See y’all out there!👋🏾

Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing,
there is a field. I’ll meet you there. --Rumi

Word exist because of meaning, once you have gotten the meaning you can forget the words- Zhuangzi

Today, like every other day, we wake up empty
and frightened. Don’t open the door to the study
and begin reading. Take down a musical instrument.
. --Rumi

I am a universe in a handful of dirt,
whole when totally demolished.-- Rumi
