About Me

I am aware of my environment, past and present.
I strive continuously to realize my inherent potential. I feel restlessness developing when I am off the path of doing what I am individually fitted for. A musician must make music, an artist must paint, a poet must write. What I can be I must be.
I am humble in my recognition of what I know in comparison with what could be known, and I am ready and willing to learn from anyone.
I listen to my own tastes, and am prepared to be unpopular. I avoid bland uniformity. I am not susceptible to social pressure. I am a nonconformist.
I know my limitations, but am capable of having the foresight to proactively work around them. I am not ashamed or guilty about my human nature, with its shortcoming, imperfections, frailties, and weaknesses.
I feel that the journey is just as important as the end.
I shy away from shallow relationships, but greatly enjoy intimate personal relationships with a few close friends and family members.
I enjoy being alone. What appears to be unsociability is really the quality of detached introspection, where I find my thoughts and feelings realign without the interference of others.
I champion diversity and individualism.
I am creative in my own way. This creativity is not a special-talent creativeness, but a creativity having a fresh, naïve, and direct way of looking at things, a creativity that is normally unobtainable to others by suffocating acculturation.
