About Me

I'm originally from St. Louis, MO. (Blues and Cards!) Moved down to Laredo, TX when I was 15 for about 6 years, back to St.L for 2, and now I'm here in SA. I admire my father the most, from having practically nothing to becoming a doctor, and remaining humble enough to accept food or drink as a payment when certain patients could not afford it. My mom seems like an ex-hippie but I still love her, haha. Love hockey, been playing since I was about 5 as well as drawing ever since I could remember. I'm humble, modest and down to earth. I like the simple things in life but still gotta have my gadgets. Oh, and I'm very approachable, don't let the scars fool you, I was a crazy kid back then. Other than that I like to meet new people and travel. Peace.My Website

Quotes:"There is no need to search; achievement leads to nowhere. It makes no difference at all, so just be happy now! Love is the only reality of the world, because it is all One, you see. And the only laws are paradox, humor and change. There is no problem, never was, and never will be. Release your struggle, let go of your mind, throw away your concerns, and relax into the world. No need to resist life; just do your best. Open your eyes and see that you are far more than you imagine. You are the world, you are the universe; you are yourself and everyone else, too! It's all the marvelous Play of God. Wake up, regain your humor. Don't worry, you are already free!" - Dan Millman from "Way of the Peaceful Warrior"If we were not so single-minded about keeping our lives moving, and for once could do nothing, perhaps a huge silence might interrupt this sadness of never understanding ourselves and of threatening ourselves with death".....Pablo Neruda from "Keeping Quiet""Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want rain without thunder and lightning"...Frederick Douglass"History is always best written generations after the event, when clouded fact and memory have all fused into what can be accepted as truth, whether it be so or not"...Theodore Harold White"Allergies suck!"...me"I'd rather feel the earth beneath my feet"...Simon and Garfunkel"Everything that has ever happened to us is there to make us stronger"...John Trudell
