About Me


Just listen to the playlist ;]
I am a people person. I enjoy meeting people, talking with people, and sharing experiences with people. I think that is what life is all about. I believe that when we share ideas, we can change the world. There is nothing worse to me than knowing that there are problems all around you, and not caring to do your part to fix it. I'm just riding the waves, doing what I can every day to make my little corner of the world a better place. I always forgive, never forget, and try not to sweat the small stuff. I will listen to everything anyone has to say, but seldom will my mind be swayed once I have made it up. I believe that everything and everyone is just a part of the whole, and that we are all connected. We are all just expressing the same idea in different ways, and when we take the time to understand that, we have a whole universe of perceptions to share with each other. I love a lot; sometimes I am overwhelmed with it. I breathe music. One day I hope to become much more skilled at making my own. I do my best to make those around me comfortable and happy. I am very accepting of people so long as they are of good intent. I am not fond of ignorance or authority, or anyone who tries to force their beliefs on another. The natural world is my home and it saddens me to see it overtaken by buildings, billboards, and traffic. I don't need much at all in regards to material things - just some good tunes and good people to enjoy them with. When I grow up I wanna be a kid. <3

I'd like to meet:


"“All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost; the old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, a light from the shadows shall spring; renenwed shall be blade that was broken, the crownless again shall be king."
-J.R.R. Tolkein

"No man is so foolish but he may sometimes give another good counsel, and no man so wise that he may not easily err if he takes no other counsel than his own. He that is taught only by himself has a fool for a master."
-Hunter S. Thompson

"When you've seen beyond yourself then you may find peace of mind is waiting there. And a time will come when you see we're all one and life flows on within you and without you."
-George Harrison

"Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere."
-Albert Einstein

"“It's just a ride and we can change it any time we want. It's only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings and money, a choice, right now, between fear and love. The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your door, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love instead see all of us as one.”"
-Bill Hicks

"Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind."
-Theodore Geisel (aka Dr. Seuss)

"Some people see things that are and ask, Why? Some people dream of things that never were and ask, Why not? Some people have to go to work and don't have time for all that. "
-George Carlin
