ABOUT ME
I love life....Some of my favorite things include Lunchboxes, hammocks, vinyl records, fixing the house, and growing spiritually. I try to welcome anyone and everyone who needs a place to sleep or a warm meal. Ok maybe it's not so warm, but its free and cozy. I like to think that I'm a free-spirit, and I ride the wind. Sometimes life reminds me that I can't actually ride the wind. Damn gravity!
PHILOSOPHY
Whereever you go, there you are. - Buckaroo Bonzai
That and everybody wang chung tonight. That's my motto.
I know I wasn't ready for that cannonball, but I'm taking risks. - Gus, 6.
My life is a gift. Why wait until I'm old to explore the world. You know that saying "Youth is wasted on the young?" I don't want it to be true of me.

Teach, Learn, Share
I think Aristotle would be proud of my skills in oratory and debate. I have an uncanny knowledge of pop culture. I love learning new things. Anything. New sports, games, theologies, languages, and even personalities.
