HOT DOLPHIN!

whoa, BETTER dolphin!

About Me

wake up on a floor or in a van.
not enough sleep.
poor nutrition.
body sacrificed over and over.
low moral.
driving forever.
met by indifference.
no money.
no hope.
in search of new routes, but never a destination.
passion vs fashion, and you'd better know which side you're on.
one person can make it all worthwhile.
learning to live your convictions and follow your bliss.
no free time.
feeling absolutely free.
finding "home" in a basement.
always reaching to get further, never satisfied.
setback after setback and no immediate payoff.
from the outside, it looks vanity and failure.
from the inside, it's the hero's quest of Campbell's mythologies.

if you don't understand this then we probably have little to say to each other.
