ABOUT ME

"my soul is in the sky" -shakespeare

that, and i have red hair and i laugh at just about everything and i know i have purpose in this grand universe and i think that joy is a choice and i like meeting strangers and i like playing music and i like worshipping jesus and i like eating cheese and chocolate and mangoes and i like writing poetry and i like holding hands and i like writing letters and sending them across the country or just down the road and i really like lions and really don't like roaches and with all the energy bursting in me, i still think the ideal day is chilling on a boat in east tennessee on a hazy summer day, drinking pink lemonade and reading a damn good book while the birds sing.
