ABOUT ME

I love life. My ideal day would have 60 hours in it. The morning would go like this: I would wake up before the sun, make a tasty morning sandwich, then drive to the coast to watch the sun rise. Munching on my tasty sandwich and digging myself a pair of sandboots, I'd greet the sun like an old friend, yelling at the top of my lungs, "WOOAHH! I haven't seen you in FOREVER! YOU LOOK SO GREAT! IT'S SO GREAT TO SEE YOU AGAIN! I MISSED YOU!!!" The sun probably wouldn't answer me but I know she knows how special and beautiful she is. She has to.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life with a sense of purpose and urgency. I'm working out some nuances to my overall philosophy. In the meantime, I believe in community, personal growth, limitlessness, and a vastness beyond our comprehension.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I remember riding my bike to school one morning in Billings, MT. The winter snowfall was melting away as spring was coming. I was wearing jeans and a short sleeve t-shirt in anticipation of the hot afternoon sun. I cut through Mr. Goodman's beet field and felt immediate remorse as my bike tires sank into the soft clay past the rims. I decided to go it on foot. The clay was like quicksand and my whole foot would disappear in it if I placed too much weight on it. So I had to distribute my weight between my two feet and my bicycle tires, using my bicycle like a crutch. I was cold and wet and miserable and trespassing but all I could do was laugh about the situation. I made to school on time, looking like hell, just in time to raise the American flag. (I was the flag kid).
