My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Kind people, kindred spirits, free spirits, anyone who's lost, anyone who's loved, anyone who feels alone, anyone who feels confused, anyone who wants to help!

People with lots of friends, people with a lot to give, people with a lot to ask, people with pain, people with faith, people with questions..

If you've ever been up late at night, feeling kind of bummed out, and need something to watch... come stop by!
