About Me

You should always try your best to be true to yourself, even if it's difficult. I believe strongly in honesty, both with yourself and those around you. If you're not going to give yourself fully to the people you love in your life, then you don't really love them. I don't hate anyone and love many, keeping true to the saying "Make love, not war." :D
I’m a lover of music and life. I find beauty in small and great things. The infinite beauty of a sunset, the light touch of rain on your skin, the simplicity of a blade of grass; I love it all. I would love to share said things with a kindred spirit, but if I never find that, I can do without as well.

My Interests

Photography is my hobby, my job, and my life. Feel free to check out my DEVIANTART or my freelance stuff HAUNTED BEAUTY PHOTOGRAPHY .

I'd like to meet:


I had a friend tell me that he believes that everyone you meet is potential family, and that you shouldn’t limit yourself by looking at other people as “strangers”. I fully agree. Everyone is a potential friend. We shouldn’t be scared to talk and interact with others. There’s no reason to be rude to someone you don’t know just because they’re a “stranger”. We’re all human beings; we each have our own viewpoints and ideas to share. Don’t shoot people down just because you don’t know them. If you don’t know someone, get to know them. Problem solved.
That being said, I have absolutely no interest in talking to someone who is going to preach to me, lie to me, or offer up hateful or stupid conversation. If you don't intend to like me for who I am, I have no interest in associating with you. I'm a pretty understanding person, and I love each person for who they are, but don't push your beliefs or insecurities onto me. I’m not going to live forever, and I really don’t have time or breath to waste on idiots or assholes. I also don’t have time for “friends” that are toxic or harmful to me. If I feel like you’re holding me back, being dishonest, using me, or are just dead weight, I’ll leave you behind. No questions asked. This goes for anyone; "friends", family, and cuddly little kittens. If you’re harmful for me, I want absolutely nothing to do with you. As long as you're honest, sincere, and caring, I'll probably like you.

Music:

A little bit of everything. Music makes up about 96% of my life. Current favorites are: E Nomine | Oomph! | Ryan Downe | Terra Naomi | Abba | Tears For Fears | Audiocrunch | Madonna | Annie Lennox | Rammstein | Danny Elfman | Vnv Nation | Apocalyptica | ASP | Lorenna McKennitt

Movies:

I'm a fan of indie films. Less advertising and product placement. I still like big movies though. Anything thought provoking is good. Any genre goes; horror, comedy, romance, drama, cartoons, whatever.

Television:

The world would be better off without it.

Books:

Again, anything that'll make me think. Romanace novels, not so much. But I'll pretty much read anything you throw in front of me. I find textbooks, or educational books in general, insanely riveting.

Heroes:

Anyone who is unconditionally honest. Anyone who wishes to improve the lives of others, their own lives, and the world in general.

Ready to let go

I had this overwhelming feeling today that I'm going to end up alone; live and die alone.  A month ago, the thought of dying alone scared me.  I realize now that it isn't something I should ...

Where does love exist?  On a spiritual level?  A physical level?  You can love a friend, a sexual partner, a family member.  What is love but a word thrown out to keep someone arou...
