About Me

It's hard to stay mad, when there's so much
beauty in the world. Sometimes I feel
like I'm seeing it all at once, and it's
too much, my heart fills up like a balloon
that's about to burst... And then I remember
to relax , and stop trying to hold on to it,
and then it flows through me like rain and I can't
feel anything but gratitude for every single
moment of my stupid little life.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I just need to know that someone out there listens and understands and doesnâ€™t try to sleep with people even if they could have. I need to know that these people exist.

Music:

[as-of-right-now's]

Movies:

Books:

Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky
Pieces by Stephen Chbosky
To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee
Steal This Book by Abbie Hoffman
Sex, Drugs, and Cocoa Puffs:

Heroes:

And in that moment, I swear we were infinite.
I wouldn't forget the women who brought me here. mind openers. cultural travelers.
peaceful fighters. starving artists.
lost souls. simple folk. free spirits. path wanders. music lovers, hip shakers and beat breakers. people who aren't afraid of love. fellow adventurers with compassion for our mother earth. root knowers and glass blowers. dreamers. believers. truth seekers. star gazers. positive conversationalists.
