Ignorant before the heavens of my life

About Me

No one has a clue, least of all me. Filling in the days of a boring existence can be hard. Most of the time I work. Sometimes I party (ok more than sometimes), Occassionally I get motivated and draw, paint, or write a song or two. I'll learn to play the guitar I have sitting by my bed one day. I aspire to learn as much as possible about everything, but when it comes down to it there just isn't enough time. Truthfully, it's just lack of motivation. Someday I'll get off my ass (when I can afford it) and go to art school, but for now I'm just living.

The willows' golden budded branches brim in the winter air. There is fire --even in winter, even when my heart here cannot remember the way of Love.--The road curves round taking me to where I have been, and in the bend, the willows' golden budded branches brim. MyGen Profile Generator

The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift. ~Albert Einstein

I am the harm which you inflict. I am your brilliance and frustration. I'm the nuclear bombs if they're to hit. I am your immaturity and your indignance. I am your misfits and your praised. I am your doubt and your conviction. I am your charity and your rape. I am your grasping and expectation.I see you averting your glances. I see you cheering on the war. I see you ignoring your children.I am your joy and your regret. I am your fury and your elation. I am your yearning and your sweat. I am your faithless and your religion.I see you altering history. I see you abusing the land. I see you, your selective amnesia.I see you averting your glimpses. I see you cheering on the war. I see you ignoring your children.I see you altering history. I see you abusing the land. I see you, your selective amnesia.I am your tragedy and your fortune. I am your crisis and delight. I am your profits and your prophets. I am your art, I am your vice. I am your death and your decisions. I am your passion and your plight. I am your sickness and convalescence. I am your weapons and your light.I see you holding your grudges. I see you gunning them down. I see you silencing your sisters.I see you lie to your country. I see you forcing them out. I see you blaming each other.I see you holding your grudges. I see you gunning them down. I see you silencing your sisters. I see you lie to your country. I see you forcing them out. I see you blaming each other.I see you.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone interested in art - designers, painters, photographers, musicians, movies, etc. Intellectuals, coffee addicts, cute girls with glasses, punks, rockers, smartasses, your mom, feminists, people with tattoos and piercings, nerds, hippies, internet junkies. Really, it doesn't matter. Diversity makes the world go round! Oh, and Jenny Lewis of course

I love David Bowie but not his enormous package!

You must understand the whole of life, not just one little part of it. That is why you must read, that is why you must look at the skies, that is why you must sing and dance, and write poems, and suffer, and understand, for all that is life. ~J.Krishnamurti

Acquire the courage to believe in yourself. Many of the things that you have been taught were at one time the radical ideas of individuals who had the courage to believe what their own hearts and minds told them was true, rather than accept the common beliefs of their day. ~ Ching Ning Chu
