The Hermit

And do not forget that the earth longs to feel your feet and the winds to play with your hair.

About Me

There is only one reason to be alive, and that is to keep living, to commit fully to every dream, every heartbreak; this is the truth I believe, and I live each day in its shadow.

My Interests

the preternatural
the supernatural
the hypernatural
and maybe some hippies.

I'd like to meet:

The Rescue Rangers, the Crazy 88s, and someone who can teach me the Jedi mind trick. And anyone else, really... I'm not picky.

Vegas update! (no pics)

Let's be honest.  When do I ever post pics?  I can't lie, I've got a lot on my mind these days.  Probably more than I should be worrying about.  Life isn't that hard, how else woul...

Everything changes while you’re standing still.

Take a look around, and you’ll see: things are changing without you.  It’s not your fault.  It’s not your responsibility.  It’s the inescapable torrent-flow of l...
