I am here for Friends

About Me


I can only give you one guarantee, when you first meet me you will make judgments. I am a quiet person which many people confuse with arrogance. Initially I observe and examine your character not to judge, but to understand. I am not very open during the first moments of a conversation. People expect to be friends at a moments notice and I say, what's the rush? Due to this character trait, I have few friends. The friends I do have however will remain friends for life. I try not to get wrapped up in the daily nonsense of life and try to stay focused on what I believe is important: Trust, Loyalty, and Wisdom.
I do not feel that things make people happy. People make people happy. I have no sympathy for people who do not learn from their mistakes. I try to live the most respectful life I can. I believe that if people see me doing something positive, that others will follow. I am distressed in how many people focus on the possessions of life and not the importance of relationships. A simple and powerful fact is if you get a chance to reflect on your life while you are on your deathbed you will not say "I wish I worked more, I wish I got that plasma TV., I wish I got that new car." you will say, "I wish I spent more time with the people I love, I wish I told all the people I love that I love them, and I wish I lived my life with more kindness."
Quotes that I hold dear:
"Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle." ~Plato
"Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail." ~Emerson

Struggling Within

My grip loosens its hold from friendships long ago. My childhood memories fade from time. My journey in life has led me from one end of the globe to another. All this time I have been searching for so...
