About Me

I am a simple silly soul who loves good music, good people, good conversation and good atmosphere. I don't make life more difficult than it has to be.I was born on June 21, so I'm on the cusp which means I'm a little Gemini and a little Cancer.Here's how I'm defined; astrologically: Gemini/Cancers are very intuitive, and their broad-minded outlook and capacity for abstract reasoning enables them to make strong contributions to projects. Emotion is a key part of their lives and is checked and balanced with logic and objectivity. Their awareness and intellectual approach to life is refreshing, and their emotional honesty is something to be admired.This explains why I chose my profile name Ratiosynative.Definition of ratiocinative (rash'e-os'e-na'tiv):-noun the process of logical reasoning-adj. Of, relating to, marked by, or skilled in methodical and logical reasoning.This word describes my state of mind...logical. I'm a thinker and I believe the ability to reason makes humans unique and powerful; among many other things.With that being said, I feel the needed to explain my presence on myspace.I must admit I've avoided joining myspace because it's addictive and I felt I wasn't ready to make the commitment to staying active here. But after reading blogs, bio's, running across people I've lost touch with, people I'd like to get in touch with, and listening to artists music...I was compelled to join myspace. I realized I wanted to give feedback and share my views with others. Myspace is a great place for ones mind and muse.
