I am here for Friends

About Me

"It is not our purpose to become each other; it is to recognize each other, to learn to see the other and honor him[her] for what he[she] is." -Hermann Hesse
i enjoy those who dare to be eccentrically-splendidly-unabashedly themselves. maybe that's cuz i'm so wierd. or worst, maybe it's cuz i fear i'm normal.
I prefer the flesh to internet encounters...nothing beats good ole person-to-person interactions. but for now, this will do. Our paths will cross eventually :-)....
