Music, Movies, and Books

The Shawshank Redemption:
Apart from being an incredibly well put together movie, it is the best story of hope I have ever seen.

The Stand and 1984:
Both of these do a great job of illustrating the humanity of struggling with our own identity against an overarching society.

I do not have a favorite band; my music taste fluctuates based on my mood. I enjoy almost all types of music.
