About Me

CURRENT MISSION

freedom

ABOUT ME

I once had many shortsighted assumptions/inferences about existence, the universe and humanity. Yes, those conclusions have changed. Yes, my worldview is constantly changing. This is lovely, though sometimes frightening (if, of course, I choose it to be- ha).

Oh, other than that, I went to college, and now I'm mostly drifting around. Been to most of the United States (save the Southwest and New England + places off the mainland) and dipped into other parts of North America. I dig traveling, but I also love planting somewhere for at least a few months in order to gain a sense of a certain place's energy. Grew up in the South, and will defend it vehemently when I'm away, and complain incessantly while I'm there. Ho hum. ;)

I love to read tons of fiction, devour rock and roll, write poems sometimes, paint even less frequently, and I might be in a band still.

PHILOSOPHY

cultivate compassion, DIY

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't watch many movies. I'm picky with but dig something from every conceivable genre of music. I have been working more and reading less lately save the news; just got a bo$$ Bible (New Oxford Annotated Bible with Apocrypha: New Revised Standard Edition), started it and wanna take it all in!!! I just need to work less (but I love to work :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

just one?

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach accidentally. I learn constantly. I share too much ;)

O.K. -- I am a fantastic English tutor, I know a ton about pop music, I want to learn more about organic gardening, social justice, food justice and alternate realities/states of consciousness (but you already do!)
