Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even the dull and the ignorant; they too

About Me

"I travel in gardens and bedrooms, basements and attics, around corners, through doorways and windows, along sidewalks, up stairs, over carpets, down drainpipes, in the sky, with friends, lovers, children and heros; perceived, remembered, imagined, distorted and clarified" .."
Like a rhinestone cowboy, a little bit of many things.....what comes to mind hmm, I think everyone should make their own media. I love music. Hippie shows, indy shows, rock shows, hip hop shows. Hula hoopers, musicians, hipsters, breakdancers, djs, mcs, graffiti artists, creative people and people who express themselves. "Say I'm good, I'm good, could be better, could be better, I will, I will, make a change for the better." -Native Guns
