CURRENT MISSION

To know a place. To really know and understand a single place and the people who share it.

ABOUT ME

I am learning everyday how to open myself up more to others and possibilities. I'm a bit of a worrier, but I'm also very responsible and understanding. I'm open to many new things as long as I feel safe. I realize that concepts of safety are relative.

PHILOSOPHY

I live for those who love me. Those who love me want me near, so I don't travel much at all.

I think people are universally okay. No one is awesome or horrible all of the time.

Everyone has their own crap going on in their lives. When we forget this, misunderstandings can arrise.

I'm always trying to improve myself. My definition of improvement is always . . . improving. Yet, I'm pretty accepting of who I am in the moment.

I attempt (but often fail) at being as apolitical and nonreligious as possible while retaining awareness and empathy.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I cathartically wrote a prose poem once that really got to people, moved them. It later was published in a local journal and lost all its magic. It changed from being an amazing experience into a trophy.
