"I'll hold on to the world tight someday. I've got one finger on it now; that's a beginning." -Ray Bradbury (Fahrenheit 451)

PHILOSOPHY

I live for the exchange of stories and knowledge between people. A personal theory: "Our greatest teachers are each other. If we are to go beyond the boundaries that society has defined for us, we must come together to share and listen to each others' experiences. It is from the intimacy of respectful interaction that we might accept and even embrace our differences and the tensions that might exist, and arrive to at a greater understanding and working relationship with one another."

I believe we can all be considered artists since we shape and sculpt our own lives and the lives of others through human interaction and the choices we make. I feel that is incredibly powerful.
