You're never too old to go out and play

About Me

Provehito In Altum
omnia vincit amor et nos cedamus amori
I'm coming out of my cage...
You wanted a hero tonight, but I'm not made of steel...
My hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me. So won't you kill me, so I die happy
Let's drink til we can't feel feelings anymore
If ignorance is bliss, why aren't more people happy?
Never be afraid to try new things

things that get on my nerves
ignorance, naivete (not necessarily the same thing as ignorance or innocence which i happen to like, and no they're not the same), pretentiousness, people who don't try to see things from other people's points of view (there are 6 billion people out there, it's quite possible that one or two of them might not agree with you; every so often you should try to not only see things through your own eyes. Who knows, you might like what you see), inconsiderate people, people who are shallow, liars, overall though it takes a lot to piss me off...oh yea, damn papercuts cuz they don't really hurt until you actually notice them and even then they don't really hurt, but sting just enough to bug the crap out of you
my biggest vice is long hot showers; 15 minutes is short for me - I have been known to shower for over an hour

To all the faithless

I'm sick of people telling me that I can say the things I say about love because I haven't been in a long relationship. Why, just because you're in a serious relationship, does that mean you should fo...

reality

There is not a single reality...reality based upon perceptions that are different for each person and change over time...what we know has meaning only within a given situation or context......
