About Me


MySpace Layouts
    MySpace Layouts MySpace Codes MySpace Backgrounds
Imagine a unit circle bisected by a line, two points at each end of the line representing points at opposite sides of the circle. Imagine that these to points are fixed in relation to one another but are free to travel at variable speeds and positions about the circle. Now imagine that this circle may represent, schematically, any number of opinions or positions on various subjects. That would be me.

I’m always surprised to hear the certain feedback on being an instigator, on being excitable, about being mutable. I will say that I’m clearly defined. I view myself as being on a continual path of progression. Clear visions of art and spiritual development are held within my consciousness. I am what I am not. I am not what I am. I am spontaneous, true, authentic.

My Interests

Buddhism, meditation, music, art, poetry, writing, working out and fitness, sports (mostly college, especially the Ducks), outdoors, reading, hiking, epicurean pursuits, travel, science, chemistry, mathematics, Green Anarchy, Environmental Activism, nature, peace

the man
