About Me


"I believe in the Kingdom Come. When all the colors will bleed into one, bleed into one. And yes, I'm still running. You broke the bonds and you loosed the chains. Carried the cross of my shame, of my shame. You know I believe it. But I still haven't found, what I'm looking for."
--U2, "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For"
"Tonight I'll be on that hill 'cause I can't stop. I'll be on that hill with everything I got. Lives on the line where dreams are found and lost. I'll be there on time and I'll pay the cost, for wanting things that can only be found in the darkness on the edge of town."
--Bruce Springsteen

Choices

We sit in the dull, pale orange light of my father's kitchen. Wisps of steam rise elegantly from the kettle on the stove and seem to hang in limbo half way to ceiling before resolving into nothing. I'...

ranting that aspires to eloquence.

My general psycology and the content of my thoughts have always been held in a strict tension. there is an unfortunately large part of me that is romantic to a fault. all one need do is read a&nb...
