About Me

CURRENT MISSION

looking to find beauty everywhere.

ABOUT ME

quite often i'm overwhelmed with being in love with everyone and everything all at once. other times, not so much.

These days are pages,these years chapters. A plot emerges which is sometimes lost, often revised. Characters come and go, the people I have known, the limited cast of humans that one life can bear. Some I betray, some I love. Some I admire, some I pity. Some I teach, some teach me. Some I lust after, some are naked and I hope to clothe them.
So fade to black and white now, roll the movie of my life inside of my head... --Linford Detweiler

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

prayed for world peace in an unbroken circle of 20,000 people in a valley in West Virginia.

Teach, Learn, Share

if we can get our hands on some wool, i'd love to show someone feltmaking. i play a pretty mean game of scrabble and would be happy to give pointers... or you can just kick my ass and give me a lesson in humility.

i spent 5 years as a super devoted christian, and it's always interesting for me to discuss anything biblical or pertaining to christian faith.

i'm really lazy about learning languages. if someone could light a fire under my keister about learning turkish, that would be fabulous.
