"The unexamined life is not worth living"
.. I like live music, coffee shops, exploring new places, literature, skin, kyaking, philosophy, nice jeans, challenging intellectual conversations, being outdoors, and learning guitar. I've been camping in Grand Canyon and now I'm hooked--wanna go back with me?
"It is better to be impetuous than cautious, for Fortune is a woman, and it is necessary, if you wish to keep her down, to beat her and knock her about."--N. Machiavelli. I like passionate people who have something to say, however out there it is.
Road trip companions, deep thinkers, southern ex-pats, tequilla drinkers, observers, challengers, unselfish people with contagious smiles, individuals, iconoclasts, the east coast diaspora, anyone who can drag me out of my shell, those who seek the bigger picture...

''The struggle itself towards the heights is enough to fill a man's heart. One must imagine Sisyphus happy.'' Albert Camus
"To show compassion for an individual without showing concern for the structures of society that make him an object of compassion is to be sentimental rather than loving" William Sloane Coffin, Jr.
"May God give you an inquiring and discerning heart, the courage to will and to persevere, a spirit to love, and the gift of joy and wonder." -Adapted from a Catholic baptismal prayer
