About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see, to be, to grow!

ABOUT ME

I'm outgoing, interested, and believe in coffee.

PHILOSOPHY

To quote another:

"Let's understand a couple of basic things here. We're spinning around on a ball of mud. That is one of billions and billions of balls of mud spinning through this universe. There's a part of me that realizes that everything is completely meaningless, really. ...We need a little perspective about how unimportant what we do is. Having said that, I think it's very important to love your family and love your friends and do things that help you grow and help you sleep. That's what I'm trying to do with my life." -gn
