About Me

Myspace Online Now IconsLife has limitless possibilities, and I want to explore all of them. Experience everything and commit myself to nothing. If we have only one life to live as human beings we might as well see as much of the world as possible and explore the depths of humanity. Most things are only reflections of other things on different microcosmic and macrocosmic levels. Cycles repeat themselves. You cannot change the nature of the universe, only seek to gain an understanding of it while you're here. Embrace death when the time is right, but until then, embrace life!
