About Me


In my life, anxiety and fear are a result of not being clairvoyant. However, I struggle, as we all do, to carry on, not knowing what will happen. Faith. I think it is instilled in all of us. I choose to lay my faith in humanity. I believe that all of us are good in some way, and I believe that no situation is black and white. I find it very disheartening when I meet people who have no faith in humanity.
It just so happens, that this lack of faith runs rampid in the south, where I am from. I don't think anyone is to blame for this fact, I simply believe it is up to us to show eachother that humanity and community have merit. I think the reason America is in such a sad state is partially due to our wide-spread lack of faith in eachother. If you watch the movie, Bowling For Columbine, I think you will find this is what Michael Moore was trying to convey.
Anyway, I am an Anarcho-syndicalist. To be an anarcho-syndicalist means to be one who views labor unions as a potential force for revolutionary social change. They believe that labor unions can replace capitalism and the State with a new society democratically self-managed by workers. Anarcho-syndicalists seek to abolish the wage system and private ownership as the means of production, which leads to class divisions.
Oh, and one more thing...
Eddie Vedder should have been my father, and in many ways he was. I think this idea should paint a fair picture of the importance of music in my life. What other innate ability exists that can heal, provoke emotion, and cleanse the soul? Music is my meditation.
