Tyler

Tell all my friends that I'm bound for heaven, and if it aint so, you can't blame me for livin'.

About Me

A brain, a body and perhaps a soul.
Often accompanied by a camera and a grin,
sometimes a book,
but rarely a care.

Heroes:

There's this guy at wall street and memorial highway on my way home from work; he's a crossing guard. Everyday he wears a different, often weird looking hat and waves at every car that passes by. He's old, probably in his eighties and has the warm smile and comfortable beard that you can't help but admire. I haven't spoken to him, don't know his name or anything, but his random sense of compassion, at least enough to wave, makes him my hero.

As I sit here struggling to pump out a page of my paper, much less the 15 more I need, I keep questioning what I am doing. In the grand spectrum of things, this paper means little to nothing. It won'...

All that of which I can concieve exists, if only in my mind.

The other day, while swimming at a lake with some friends, a blade of grass drifted into my hand almost intentionally. I thought it curious that for whatever reason, this blade of grass, this simple o...
