..I was born the 24th of september 1970.I'm not self-assured, but I speak my mind and sometimes even talk too much. I tend to trust no one. Although I'm not religious - religion oppresses women and fuels hatred - I'm interested in Buddhism because I sometimes find a lot of solace in it. I don't believe in reincarnation although I do believe this life is merely a phase, a chance and a choice to treat every living being with kindness and respect. To state the late Johnny Cash in 'The man comes around' I sincerely believe we won't be treated all the same. I have 'Comes around goes around' tattooed on my back, reversed on purpose cos not only what you do to people matters, it's also what they do to you. I'm a libertine. I don't drink, smoke or do drugs although I refuse to call myself straight edge because of its gang control policy. For a lot of people, not all of 'em!!, S.E. is just a whim of fashion. I am sober now for thirteen years simply because I had a huge alcohol problem. But I do love it this way. I used to be a punkrocker and in my heart I guess I'll always be, though punk itself has become a bit hazy. There's nothing wrong with eyeliner as long as it doesn't blind your eyes for what's really happening. I work as a volonteer in the animal shelter, I am anti vivisection and against any form of animal exploitation.
