About Me


Get this Layout

Myspace Layouts Myspace Generators Myspace LayoutsMyspace Layouts I am a fellow traveler on this crazy planet. I work in a cubicle. I've lived most of my adult life doing what I thought was best at the time - and it wasn't what I had planned or hoped, but sometimes you make sacrifices. I've spent the last couple of years moving towards my aspirations - reconnecting with my core self and weaving my dreams into reality. I like to attend and/or particiapte in spoken word events, improvisational theatre, acting, writing, and making music. Love matters to me. I center myself with an attitude of gratitude - and that makes all the difference. If you want to know more about me, just ask.

My Interests

People interest me a lot and I would probably find you interesting. Put in a friend request if you haven't already! I love traveling, dining out, exploring new places, revisiting favorite places, attending comedy shows, theatre, good music venues, movies, card games, board games, I like a wide variety of sports and recreation, and I’m especially fond of bicycling, taking walks, flying kites, and feeding geese at the park. Free recreational activities tend to be the most relaxing. Money certainly does not buy serenity!>

Much Metta,

Chris

I'd like to meet:

Nice, open, and accepting people. I'm trying to network with writers, musicians, theatre and film artists, photographers...people who are already doing what I'd like to be doing. I'd like to meet some of my good MySpace friends. That would be cool!

Music:

Music is my greatest passion. I like to create music. I play piano, guitar, and harmonica and I’ve been very inspired to make my own music lately. All musical styles have good music and bad music. Good is what grabs you and bad is what doesn’t. I probably like a lot of what you like and I probably don’t like a lot of what you like. .. width="425" height="350">.. .. ....>.. width="425" height="350">.. .. ....>

Movies:

I love a LOT of movies. My all time favorites include The Wizard of Oz, Clerks, Girl, Interrupted, Love and Death, Waiting to Exhale, and Monty Python’s Quest for the Holy Grail. There are just too many others to mention.

Television:

I grew up on 60’s and 70’s television and I watched everything! I thought life was supposed to be like TV and I’m still adjusting to the fact that its not! I don’t watch much TV anymore. When I do it is usually late night talk shows or movies.

Books:

I love the works of Friedrich Nietzsche, Mark Twain, and Hermann Hess. Most of the recent books I’ve read have been of the “personal growth” and “love and relationships” variety. I owe my happiness to the simple books “On Caring” by Milton Mayeroff and “Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff” by Richard Carlson. I am now working on my own writings with hopes that I can one day make my living as a writer. I’m a late bloomer in the writing field.

Heroes:

Myspace Contact TablesGeorge Carlin, Lenny Bruce, Frank Zappa, Socrates, and Bugs Bunny.

Selfishness vs Self-fulfillment

The great thing about life is that it always starts over. It is perpetually beginning and we can make the rest of it the best that we can by simply doing our best with each moment as it comes - livin...
