About Me

Hi my name is Jonathan. You can call me by my full name or just simply by John. Once you've gotten to know me than you may get alittle more creative. I currently reside in a one bedroom two floor apartment in Conshohocken. Which is a suburb and a short drive from the city of Philadelphia. Located in Pennsylvannia (PA), in the country of the United States of America. I come from a small loving family with one younger brother, and I have been blessed with many friends from all areas and genres of my life. I am truly proud to say that I have know more than a handful of them since I was seven years old. Though I am still fairly young & old, (mid twenties), I have experienced all types of people and situations in my life. Which has at the very least readfirmed my belief that we are all pure and kind hearted people at our inner most core. I am an animal lover, a dweller of natural wonders, and roamer of large cities. The idea of new experiences and the many changing roads of life keeps me interested and interesting! I have had my share of old and new proud moments, smiling faces, sweet kisses, and day dreams. As well.. as hardships, lost causes, broken heart's, and confused filled days. This life we live is for us alone but I view my own life as a shared experience with the ones I care about most. My greatest weakness and strength lies in my quest to be there for others more than my self and to always try to do the right thing. Now, don't get me wrong I do like to have my share of fun too! I love immersing myself in all types of music, getting caught up in a good movie/flick, hanging out with my friends, as well as making new ones, and experiencing life to its fullest. ................................................... I was a late talker and early walker. With that being said it's no wonder why I tend to ramble on so much and why I still love long walks. Now I assure you that I am doing my best to get to the point with less and less ramblings each and every time. But, I refuse to give up on my walks, though if your free sometime I might let ya join me.--------------------------------------Random thoughts as of late on me and what I enjoy: I am a collector of moments and memories, yet I do not live in the past. The idea as well as the pride of accomplishing goals and tasks drives me daily. I like to give as well as receive surprises! Singing out loud and in harmony, playing billiards or hockey with friends, and debating various topics including the "society taboos" with people who have strong well thought out opinions. The quaint little things in life such diner plastic bubble cups, warm crescent rolls with butter, milano cookies, as well as dunkin oreos in glasses of milk. Getting caught up in the sound of laughter, the shine of a lonely wet street, the tender seranade of an acoustic guitar and the deep tone of a piano. The therapy of walking alone, the smell of autumn, the warmth of a roaring fire place in the winter, and the comfort of occasionally sleeping in. The ease of relaxing on a hammock on a breezy sunny day, the taste of a tender kiss, and the awl of watching a thunder & lightning storm as it rolls in. I am addicted to a soothing cup of tea at night and an iced one during the day. The sweet scent of swirling incense and the gentle silhouettes of candles burning relaxes me and helps me to meditate. In the past couple of years I have become an avid reader and a lover of fine merlots. I am an evening to a night owl, but as of recently I found that can do mornings too. I miss the pureness of my very early childhood but I look forward to growing, and to the wisdom of old age. I have been told and truly believe that I am young at heart but have an old soul. If any one was ever a hopeless romantic it's me but I refer to it as being a hopeful romantic. With that being said I'm also rational and realistic when it comes to long relationships. I have blue collar blood coursing through my veins but I do enjoy all types of work. Most of all... I am who I and that is with out a doubt alittle mix of every experience and every person that I have had the pleasure of coming into contact with, all rolled up into one. I am an open minded, compassionate, honest, hardworking, modest, old fashion romantic, and a true pacifist with an optimist nature! Who wants the world for others, as well as a good life for myself.So with all of this been said... there is much more to my story past, present, and future.. but as for the rest I have learned to share it when it best fits the time and situation. If you want to know more feel free to drop me an e-mail sometime. Take-Care

Heroes:

Every day people can be heroes! Just by simple, kind, and positive gestures that help anyone in any positive way. Remember to Pay it Forward! Personally my hero’s are Robert Nesta Marley / Bob Marley, by not only creating positive and amazing music, but more so for using his talents and fame to gain attention for humanitarian and political worthy causes. I also admire Paul Hewson / Bono (from the band U2), and David J. Matthews (from the band DMB); for there poetic words, amazing music, and passionate humanitarian goals. Lance Armstrong for his athletic ability, his courage while fighting cancer, and most importantly for his goal to make ailments and diseases in general a more open and accessible topic for the public at whole to handle and tackle.
