Ego sum homo indomitus--puellae meam delectat...

About Me

One of my core beliefs is that hard work and discipline are the foundations of success. I've always had a strong internal drive to succeed, but somewhere along the way I realized that some things in life cannot be forced, and are better off left to fate. I found that wealth, titles, and status are a poor measure of a man's "success"...but rather that the depth of character, friendships, and personal experiences he possesses represent a far better measure of his achievements. "The true profession of man is to find his way to himself." - Herman Hesse

My Interests

Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I -- I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.

I'd like to meet:

Fun, honest, open-minded people...

Sonnet XVII

I don't love you as if you were the salt-rose, topaz or arrow of carnations that propagate fire: I love you as certain dark things are loved, secretly, between the shadow and the soul. I love you as ...
