"Life can be lived more fully if people simply quit pretending to be who they were told to be, and be who they really are…" -- Doug Firebaugh
I'd like to meet:
People with soul, who are genuine and open-minded. Members of my tribe that I have yet to meet. Those who know how to have a good time and who think outside the box. People with skillz and all the sweet hook-ups.
Music:
Music is moral law. It gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, a charm to sadness and a gaiety and life to everything. It is the essence of order and leads to all that is good, true and beautiful.
~Plato

Television:
Is evil and just a tool to occupy your mind and keep you distracted and entertained so you don't let your mind wander too far where you might actually start thinking about what's really going on.But okay, yeah I do get sucked in now and again (like everyday). The Daily Show w/ Jon Stewart is my official news source. Forensic Files (morbid facination), 24, Six Feet Under (again morbid, hmm I might need to look into this)
Books:
I don't read as much as I would like to. I enjoyed Ishmael thouroughly. Most of the time I read supense, I really like Dean Koontz. I would love some suggested reading, so do tell.
Heroes:
The person who wrote this:
"Evil is boring. The universe is friendly. Life is on your side. Joy is your birthright.
Cynicism is idiotic. Fear is a bad habit. Despair is lazy. In fact, all of creation wants you to succeed.
Act as if the universe is a prodigious miracle created for your amusement and illumination. Assume that secret helpers are working behind the scenes to assist you in turning into the gorgeous masterpiece you were born to be. Retrain your senses and intellect so you're able to perceive the fact that life always gives you exactly what you need, exactly when you need it." --PRONOIA Is the Antidote for Paranoia: How the Whole World Is Conspiring to Shower You with Blessings"
Johnnyhead came for a visit and bonded with baby Justice.
