CURRENT MISSION

To spiritually awaken through synchronous events

ABOUT ME

I'm currently awakening in my spirituality... I enjoy conversation of any kind, especially philosophy, the arts, and current events of the world.
My friend broke my tibia and fibula with a running-jump-tackle of love right before Burning Man, I still went on crutches to the desert... therefore, I can do anything. Good learning experience.

PHILOSOPHY

Peaceful R(evol)utionary.
