About Me

I am in the midst of an identity crisis.. trying to map out my place in the world.. peeling through the layers of contradiction while discovering humanity and feeling humility. Dancing is my meditation and my outlet to scream."you are a bridge suspended over a sea of affliction... facing a cloud of endless possibility.." -Josh

My Interests

img src="http://img58.imageshack.us/img58/2241/1d65df66ad8d8b8d8 wl.jpg" border="0" width picking up random hitchhikers, getting stoned together on the short ride to or from school and making life discoveries and revelations. the universe has a funny way of working... and also dancing, writing, running, cycling... anything active

I'd like to meet:

The past four years have been filled with instances of seeking together-ness through the tortured routes of life... and finding redemption in the small moments that connect us to someone -anyone - else on earth.

Music:

is my therapy, outlet and makes me feel in every ounce of body... anything that makes me feel empowered and connected. music takes over my body when i dance."you belong among the wild flowers, you belong in a boat out at sea... you belong somewhere you feel free..." music is my way of connecting with those that are not with me..

Movies:

cant watch movies anymore without deconstructing them. but still love a lot of them.

Television:

tv shows on dvd... so addicted

Books:

too many.. bookworm since the age of six

Heroes:

there is not any one person... people coming together, working towards equality through differences is heroic to me.... people dealing with loss, dealing with chains of the prison system, and anyone grappling with the hierarchies and contradictions of this society. Angela Davis and George Lipsitz are inspirations.
