About Me

I am an artist, designer, creator, rock historian, and an info keeper. My personality can be discribed as unique,creative and artistic,Melancholy, Phlegmatic, Idealistic, Individualistic, Free spirited, observor, passionate, and spontaneous. Music and art are not only interests of mine, but are very important things in my life. They are part of my soul. It is hard to discribe something like that. The Creative Mind is a terrible thing to waste. I am also a freethinker. I also believe that the Earth is our mother and we should take better care of her. She has given us alot. I love trees. I do not believe in any organized religion. My beliefs are from Wiccan and Buddhist dogmas. However, Buddhism is more of a philosophy than a religion. I dont believe in pushing your beliefs and so-called "values" on anyone. Freedom of religion means any religion...more like freedom FROM religion. I Believe in the legalization of marijuana. There are many legal drugs out there that are more harmful than pot, yet because our country is so uptight and the fact that its big business and political bullshit, it is illegal. Pot is natural, man, not manufactured. MOTHER NATURE DOES NOT MAKE MISTAKES. www.NORML.org
