*LAST MINUTE REQUESTS PREFERRED*
**My life is very busy sporadic currently. I won't be offended by impersonal copied&pasted messages, because it's honestly a long shot at this time. Although I'd love to help in any which way I can.

I am so terrified of life, but nothing makes me feel more alive then facing my fears. I love it. It causes me to do crazy things. I like sneaking into abandoned places, and riding motorcycles, working crazy jobs and traveling. Everyday I try to do something I am afraid of. And my true fears lie socially. You may not be able to tell, but I'm very socially nervous. When I'm talking to strangers my heart is probably pounding. and I'll just be breathing through it... Doing my best to stay out of my head and with you. Because courage is being strong here in this moment. And exercising your bravery like that makes it easier to be courageous when it really matters. When you need to stand your ground, or speak up for those with unheard voices.
That's what I've been about lately.
You'll find our conversations to penetrate deeply, and quick. I will be asking myself, what wisdom can I gain from this person? What new perspective can I see this from? So if I someday grow old I can be a wise old wizard with massive weight to my words and really get people to explore their minds. I wont blab and blab and act like I don't have any more knowledge to gain. Although I do have a lot to say, and can easily talk too much, I focus on always listening first.
I'll say fuck yeah to a rowdy fun time, or a total silent chillout.

i was talking to a moth
the other evening
he was trying to break into
an electric light bulb
and fry himself on the wires
why do you fellows
pull this stunt i asked him
because it is the conventional
thing for moths or why
if that had been an uncovered
candle instead of an electric
light bulb you would
now be a small unsightly cinder
have you no sense
plenty of it he answered
but at times we get tired
of using it
we get bored with the routine
and crave beauty
and excitement
fire is beautiful
and we know that if we get
too close it will kill us
but what does that matter
it is better to be happy
for a moment
and be burned up with beauty
than to live a long time
and be bored all the while
so we wad all our life up
into one little roll
and then we shoot the roll
that is what life is for
it is better to be a part of beauty
for one instant and then cease to
exist than to exist forever
and never be a part of beauty
our attitude toward life
is come easy go easy
we are like human beings
used to be before they became
too civilized to enjoy themselves
and before i could argue him
out of his philosophy
he went and immolated himself
on a patent cigar lighter
i do not agree with him
myself i would rather have
half the happiness and twice
the longevity
but at the same time i wish
there was something i wanted
as badly as he wanted to fry himself
