CURRENT MISSION

Looking for God in various languages.

ABOUT ME

I like sounds, colors, voices and shapes.
I'm extraordinarily positive but not in a way that makes people want to murder me.
I don't need much, particularly considering I've lived in Africa and am therefore unused to running water.
I'm very religious, and what that means for me is that I must love everyone. (Religion, to me, is a language to talk about what we can't explain. I'm not going to say German is better than Spanish, I just prefer German. Some of the best religious conversations I've ever had are with atheists.)
I love baking muffins.
I'm quite shy, but am working on that.
I'm at home in both big cities and small mountain towns.
I wear a bowler hat.

PHILOSOPHY

We're all trying to figure out how to survive as people. Do what helps you and others survive. For me, it means: love everyone, no matter what. To give more of yourself, require less from others.
