I believe in much, and can prove little. I remind myself often that there are no answers, only choices. I speak loudly. Unapologetically. People make fuss over how empathic I am. I often am excited by mundanity.

My beliefs are chaotic at the moment, I have much to think on and not so much to say (yet). I have one statement I am confident in: None can hear God. None can speak to It, and It can speak to none. We touch It, for It is us, and we are It, as the grass beneath our feet, as the sky above our heads.

Life has been unstable, I am working on attaining stability so that I may host surfers as I would love to and have loved to. I intend to start hosting often soon, as I intend to no longer be tethered by personal complications as soon as my circumstance and power will allow it.

I spend a lot of time dancing, wherever I am.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I live in this world as a vessel for hopeful truth, I wish only to deliver wisdom and safety unto people. I wish only to allow people space to be true to their nature and to their humanity, I wish only to provide a space where we make the meaning of the moment.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have dared to be what I am.

Teach, Learn, Share

I write poems, here are two:

I want those summer nights
and soaring heights
those hellish lights
blinking unrelenting might

god I miss the stillness
the breeze, not an illness

and how you breathed
deep in breathed
out the bad breathed
in the sun and

fuck I miss the fireflies
the warmth that clarifies

I want those summer highs
and singing in Versailles
inside of sparkling eyes
a splitting second flies

off into the mist
the early morning hissed

my feet fell further
into dazzling valleys further
from the skies further
than ever before and

god I miss the wild
and being like a child

I want those summer nights
and soaring heights
the lefts and rights
no way out in sight.

and:

We are islands
floating without speech

stars across
our hands
they twinkle
on the beach

cut the rope
held the line
our spirits
will release

we are atoms
out of reach.
