I read a lot. Non fiction mostly. I seek to develop spiritually, professionally, physically, really just holisticly. I'm kind of sick of money and am realizing that I'm sick of living to work instead of working to live. I've lived through relative poverty and relative prosperity and I think I'm finally figuring out that knowing and being known in love are all that I need for joy and contentment.
I do enjoy playing electric guitar when I have a spare moment and watching a good movie even, but mostly I desire to live a life with a legacy of love, justice, hope, faith, and connection. Many around me have come far, as have I, and we all have far to go. I think I'm learning how to live in that.
I'd like to meet:
Passionate people who look beyond themselves and aren't afraid of discovering reality.

I pretty much like anything that is musically inspiring or an honest, heartfelt expression of somebody's soul (especially toward our Creator).
Movies:
The Matrix Trilogy, Braveheart, The Last Samurai, To End All Wars, Ocean's Eleven and Twelve, Like Father Like Son (a dumb movie from the 80's with Kirk Cameron.

Two sucked).
Television:
I don't watch t.v.Click here to check out and support Beautiful Angle, the makers of this guerilla art above.

Heroes:
Jesus, My mentor Paul, Paul the Apostle, Michael Frost, Alan Hirsh, Mark Driscoll, Rob Bell, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Mohandas Ghandi, Mother Theresa, William Wilberforce, Spider Man (one word?), and this guy:
