CURRENT MISSION

To help people see themselves in others.

ABOUT ME

I'm happy. My religion is just... meditation, exercise, and yoga.

I'm fun, easygoing and almost impossible to offend. I have an open personality.

Among other things, I'm into music, storytelling, philosophy, and experiments in social activism.

I love talking about big things.

I question everything, and don't hold solid beliefs of anything. I’m cynical. I’m very willing to support a cause that I think is the lesser of two evils.

PHILOSOPHY

Kind of... buddhist. I don't have faith, I'm not sure if everything means anything, but I do care a lot about the people around me. To quote Obama "...there's a lot of different forms of violence in our society and so much of it is rooted in our incapacity to recognize ourselves in each other..." I think stories can help us see ourselves in others.

Wow... well at least I've had plenty of these. I want to tell stories about these things, not try to type them out here.

Public storytelling, dog training, politics 101, and computer hardware assembly. I am willing to teach you an animal balloon! Um... maybe chess?
