CURRENT MISSION

Just trying to see a little more of the world

ABOUT ME

Greetings! I hail from the great land of Columbia, MO and would like to rate the comfortable-ness of your couch, floor, hammock, pile of pillows, or whatever else you got. I like exploring and shenanigans in general. Currently, I am attempting to learn to serenade people with a ukulele and my favorite condiment is mustard. I have many interests!

PHILOSOPHY

"It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new. But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power." -Alan H. Cohen

"Inaction is our way of denying life, and is sitting in front of the TV every day for years because you're afraid to risk to be alive and express what you are. Expressing what you are is taking action. You may have great ideas in the head, but what matters is action. One idea, if not carried out, will not produce any representation or results or rewards. "-Miguel Ruiz
