About Me

Benson. It's Everywhere You Wanna Be.

This is your life. Are you who you want to be?

Sunday Brunch Club

Every Sunday
If you are in the Club, you know where we'll be!
One thing about me most people don't know is I don't believe in destiny, fate or luck. I think all that is a way for us to not be responsible for who we are in the world and what we are creating. I believe completely in "choice". That we choose everyday, in every circumstance, and situation who we will be at that moment. The world around us is a product of our own thoughts and actions. And the only person you can complain to about where you are in your life is yourself.
This is the true joy in life - that being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one. That being a force of nature, instead of a feverish, selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy. I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the whole community and as long as I live, it is my privilege to do for it whatever I can. I want to be thoroughly used up when I die. For the harder I work the more I live. I rejoice in life for its own sake. Life is no brief candle to me. It's s sprt of splendid torch which I've got to hold up for the moment and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations. -- George Bernard Shaw

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

"The only people who interest me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars." Jack Kerouac, 1955
