CURRENT MISSION

To enrich my life, and the lives of others, in any way that seems interesting...

ABOUT ME

i enjoy listening, but likely talk more. i would rather read a book or smoke a joint than go 'out' on a friday night. i can't get enough of natural beauty, and so am happiest in the mountains, on the ocean or in a jungle. i love people, but prefer time alone. i am a business student who is interested in a moratorium on capitalism and politics, and fear that soon, the negligence of unequal wealth distribution will lead to the largest bloodbath in our species' history. i also learned last year that smokers can run marathons too.

PHILOSOPHY

in '65 Hal David and Burt Bacharach suggested that really all we needed was a little more love. Amen. But for the body, the earth, and her 6-odd billion accidental humans, too.
