About Me

If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away. ------- Henry David Thoreau.That is my favorite quote that isn't from a song. I think it describes me and how I have always felt amongst everyone I know and have ever crossed paths with. I hold my independance closest to me and care most about my career. Before friends, family, animals and everything else in this world I come first. I am a cynical optimist - a realist. I hate negativity. I can't say or know for sure what I beleive in, but I think I beleive in Karma for sure and possibly aliens. Music saved my life and is my only true lover. I think it is impossible to be fearless and fear is what I fear most.

My Interests
