I don't want to be a pirate

About Me

I'm fast approaching 30 with a new lease on life. I've learned more life lessons before the age of 28 than most people learn in a lifetime. I've learned to love and hope even when there seems like there is nothing to love or hope for. I've learned to cherish the moments you have with friends and family, because you never know when a life will be ripped away from you. Most importantly, I've learned that self-reliance is the key to happiness!

My Interests

reading, photography, swimming, people, music, autism PEACE!!
