Revolutionary Love

About Me

This is Fern speaking to you straight, live, and direct… basically I’m a quiet 18 year old guy who thinks way too much and likes to have a good time every now and then too. I’m a Sophmore at the University of Florida studying Philosophy, and I consider myself a decent writer aspiring to be published by the end of the year. I write to wake people up to reality. I’m all about positive Social Change and heightening people’s Knowledge of Self – the two go hand in hand really. I’m also a lyricist for Artistikal Depth - check out our new album! I'm a spiritually diverse person with a lot of interfaith beliefs, but my core is based around Catholicism. I'm always working on heightening my Knowledge of Self and teaching people how to liberate themselves from this oppressive system that forces us to choose between wage-slavery or death. Those are my main concerns but like I said, I like to kick it on the weekends and chill or party sometimes. Get at me. Hasta la victoria siempre mis camaradas. PEACE!
Feel free to hit me up on AIM - BuscaPe762
