About Me

I used to consider my life pretty simple but when stepping back and looking at the big picture I realize that's not really true. It's fine though, I realize now that I could never be satisfied in the mundane.
I love the concept of the human life and I am very passionate about mine. Most of all, I want to live a life of love, but I want many other big things. I want to do big things, I want my life to count for something, and I am excited in the legacy I am beginning to build. I once heard the question, "What is the meaning of life?" then this answer followed, "To live". That is what I do.
I live to see my husband be successful in everything he desires to do in his life. Some people think that's wrong. They think it's unfair to me, or they think that I have some kind of "submission" issue. Understand this. A real marriage is a friendship. John is my best friend and it just comes naturally for me to desire nothing more than to see him happy and whatever I can do to make that happen, I'm on it!
I take friendships very seriously. Once I get to know you, I will not let you go. I do not believe in superficial relationships. Sometimes I get busy but if that be the case then don't worry, you will get a call from me soon telling you how lame of a friend I am.
I am finding that I love the music industry. I learn something new every day and I feel that one day I would like to pursue a career in that. Maybe a record label, maybe a venue, maybe promotions, I don't know yet, this is all new to me. I just know that it feels like home.
"Can you imagine what Americans would do if they understood over half the world was living in poverty? Do you think they would change the way they live, the products they purchase, and the politicians they elect? If we believed the right things, the true things, there wouldn't be very many problems on earth. But the trouble with deep belief is that it costs something. And there is something inside me, some selfish beast of a subtle thing that doesn't like the truth at all because it carries responsibility, as if I actually believe these things I have to do something about them. It is so, so cumbersome to believe anything." -Don Miller, Blue like Jazz

Moreso I would like to have more time when I meet people. I wish the world could stop and we could sit, have coffee, smoke cigarettes, share stories.

Music:

i enjoy most types of music. but mostly i just like songs. i'm not the type of person who can tell you who sang what and what year and what album, i just know what i like. i'm not limited to one genre, i grew up on classic country, i love folk and bluegrass, 80s music is fun, tony bennett keeps me company when i'm lonely, so does elton john and elvis costello, i was definitely into grunge and alternative back in high school, there have actually been one or two rap artists i liked, and i love beloved, anberlin, he is legend, thrice, and more. a pet peeve of mine is someone who is so into one genre that they are "too cool" to like something else. oh, and i LOVE the carpenters because my mom used to sing their songs to me. :)

Movies:

my favorites are serendipity, troy, the notebook, high fidelity, sommersby, a love song for bobby long, scent of a woman.
