My Interests

sounds...
people laughing
fingers hiting a keyboard
shoes on tile floors
rain drops hitting metal
whispers in my ear
rhymes
perfectly pronunciated words
a pencil writing on a peice of paper on glass
accents
footsteps of bare feet
marbles
the lack of sound that falling snow produces
fingerpicking on a guitar
the voice of a boy who just woke up
messeges on my answering machine
the sound that snow tires make on the road
zippers
the sound my pillow makes when my head hits it...

I'd like to meet:

you.

oh yeah, by the way, the guy in the green...well he's the love of my life.
Grant and Ross Improv Sesh

Music:

Listening to it
creating it
living by it's lyrics
falling asleep to it
singing it
loving it...

but grant's music is the best...there is nothing better than laying in bed hearing his fingers strumming the most beautiful lullaby...

Books:

CONVERSATIONS WITH GOD----"For most people, love is a response to need fulfillment. Everyone has needs. You need this, another needs that. You both see in each other a chance for need fulfillment. So you agree—tacitly—to a trade. I’ll trade you what I’ve got if you’ll give me what you’ve got. It’s a transaction. But you don’t tell the truth about it. You don’t say, “I trade you very much.” You say, “I love you very much,” and then the disappointment begins."--"Let’s go back to a point you do understand: thought is creative...Word is creative...Action is creative. Thought, word, and deed are the three levels of creation. Now let’s take “worldly success” as our subject for the moment, since that’s what you’ve been talking about, asking about...Now, do you have a thought, “I want worldly success”?...And do you also sometimes have the thought, “I want more money”?...You can therefore neither have worldly success nor more money. Because the universe has no choice but to bring you the direct manifestation of your thought about it. Your thought is, “I want worldly success.” You understand, the creative power is like a genie in a bottle. Your words are its command. You understand?...Now your words were, “I want success.” And the universe says, “Okay, you do.” Think of it this way. The word “I” is the key that starts the engine of creation. The words “I am” are extremely powerful. They are statements to the universe. Commands. Now, whatever follows the word “I” (which calls forth the Great I Am) tends to manifest in physical reality. Therefore “I” + “want success” produces you wanting success. “I” + “want money” must produce you wanting money. It can produce no other thing, because thoughts, words are creative. Actions are, too. And if you act in a way which says that you want success and money, then your thoughts, words, and actions are in accord, and you are sure to have the experience of this wantingness."---...if you repeat a thought, or say a word, over and over again—not once, not twice, but dozens, hundreds, thousands of times—do you have any idea of the creative power of that? A thought or a word expressed and expressed and expressed becomes just that—expressed. That is, pushed out. It becomes outwardly realized. It becomes your physical reality.To change your reality, simply stop thinking like that.In this case, instead of thinking "I want success," think "I have success."...think a thought you can accept. "My success is coming to me now," or "all things lead to my success."If, now, there is something you choose to experience in your life, do not "want" it—choose it."

Heroes:

Hero is defined as:
"a man, often of divine ancestry, who is endowed with great courage and strength, celebrated for his bold exploits, and favored by the gods."
"A person noted for feats of courage or nobility of purpose, especially one who has risked or sacrificed his or her life."

heros are great, but people will never fail to disappoint you.
jesus is my hero, he will never disappoint, falter, or be forgotton when someone 'better' comes along
