CURRENT MISSION

a book i found at a friends calls it "re-wilding"- learning how to live a resilient life, building webs of friendship and growth to support us all

ABOUT ME

oh boy.. big question, well I'm a student up in Montreal still now, but I'll be done in spring 2013, which might be after the world has ended but I don't think so. I hope that it's changed tho, cuz i think we could all use it... I'm not real happy with a lot of what i see round in the world, but I Am happy that I see so many other people who Aren't happy and have such great ideas about how to change it... Occupy had its problems but I'm hopin it's just the start of a lot of people coming together, findin some common ground and startin to build on it

PHILOSOPHY

hmm.. be free, but recognize the worlds an interconnected continuum of shades of all colors of the rainbow and beyond (even invisible colors!.. hmm, is it a color if we can't see it? woah, there's some sorta philosophical question.. maybe, or maybe just silliness)
back to interconnection- i believe in freedom, but am not a libertarian cuz they tend to be too individualistic in my experience
