You gotta be damn lucky to land this fish

About Me

Family, friends and community are my core. Sharing and networking with new people and places inspire me. My years have taken me to most of the US and 10 foreign countries. Living and traveling in Europe as a teen taught me my most important life lesson... not everyone is us(A). If only more people in the world were as tolerant and understanding as I try to be.... I believe we each create our world through our words. Be careful what you say and think because it is your reality. Say it can't be done, and it won't. "It is better to believe than to disbelieve; in so doing, you bring everything to the realm of possibility." ~ Albert Einstein ~ (also a fish boy....)love is the sun on my face.love is giving energy to someone youve never met, in the hope they will pass it on to someone they never met.love is listening when you need to.love is not listening when you need to.love is showing that you have nothing in your pockets to give, but giving whats in your hand when your pockets are empty.love is having nothing to say when understanding silence is called for.love is letting the person that you once loved be happy without you.love is writing a tune for someone that they may never hear.love is going without to attain a peace within.love is having nothing to prove.love is kindness in the face of hostility, and hostility in the face of unfairness.love is watching your friends and catching them when they fall.love is why i am here.

My Interests

travel, backcountry adventures, canoeing, music, pub crawling, skiing, snowboarding, driving anything with a thumb throttle, meeting and greeting.... climbing just to fall, falling just to soar, and soaring, well, that the good shit now isn't it...

I'd like to meet:

Lovers Leaders Healers Musicians Spiritualists Revolutionists and Fellow Wanderers
MySpace Codes

Music:

ALL of it, can't find enough time in the day to listen to everything i feel spilling out of my heart... Music releases me, varying day to day by my mood. TOOL and RATM when I'm angry... Iron and Wine when I'm in love.... Beck Sea Change when I'm sad...#1- support local live music...#2- Beth Orton, Sinead O'Connor, John Butler Trio, Xavier Rudd, Ani DiFranco, YMSB, MMW, Johhny Cash, Mazzy Star, Storyhill, Allison Krauss, Broken Social Scene, Micheal Franti, SCI, Zeppelin, Damien Rice, Neil Young, G.Love, Clapton, Smashing Pumpkins, LOS, Beck, Moby, Melissa Mitchell, Leonard Cohen, Thievery Corp, The White Stripes, David Gray, Portishead, Mozart, The Allman Brothers, OAR, Modest Mouse... and, and, and

Movies:

I try and limit my media exposure... I find that real life is much more interesting than fiction...

Television:

Same as above. I've been off the "TV" sauce for 5 years now and loving every minute of it
Pimp-My-Profile.com

Books:

"Listening to the Land" by Derrik Jenson. The single most influental book of my life. "Ishmael" an easy spin for newcomers into the ideas of social anthropology, its effect on our life, and why the way of the hunter-gatherers seems to be our universal solution.

Heroes:

MOM: for giving me strength and independence, maybe a little too much, also for my itchy feet-('m still wandering, mom....) DAD: for showing me a peaceful approach to life: hold on to your beliefs, but its best to agree to disagree when others don't see it your way; for showing me the importance of friends and society; for your patience, still seeking the latter. BROTHA: no matter what, blood is thicker than water... All the LOVERS and HEALERS in my life, who continually inspire me to lead an impactful life, to love more and to heal more.
