About Me

"To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you like everybody else means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting". -e.e cummings-The last 7 years of my lifeAnd Comming July 24th 2007!!!"I like to play".Trying to live life to the fullest without using that saying as an excuse to be irresponsible. I Love my friends and family more than they will ever know. I am a house painter when Im not on the road with my band Nodes of Ranvier. I work very hard and I am unable to take naps because my mind races when I have idle time. I have found honesty to be the greatest thing in life and I get along great with people who feel the same. I am inspired by blind people and anyone who has overcome adversity to make a better life for themselves and that of those around them.

All that i can love is guitar strings and heavy things.

Ive felt compelled lately to take my life and try to put it onto a page. The reason behind this I think is a feeling to some extent to get things off my chest. I find subtle comfort in being open and ...
