Literature I Like:
"So keep fightin' for freedom and justice, beloveds, but don't you forget to have fun doin' it. Lord, let your laughter ring forth. Be outrageous, ridicule the fraidy-cats, rejoice in all the oddities that freedom can produce. And when you get through kickin' ass and celebratin' the sheer joy of a good fight, be sure to tell those who come after how much fun it was." -Molly Ivins-
"Brazilianization is symbolized by the increasing withdrawal of the white American over-class into its ... world of private neighborhoods, private schools, private police, private health care, and even private roads, walled off from the spreading squalor beyond. Like a Latin American oligarchy, the rich and well connected members of the over-class can flourish in a decadent America with Third World levels of inequality and crime." - Michael Lind -

I enjoy music, reading, and creating stuff. I play, ski, row, bike, run, sing, climb, paddle, photograph, make, eat, hug, draw, create, paint, build, innovate, destroy and modify. I am inquisitive, silly, strong, gullible, adventurous, creative, determined, goofy, smart, quiet, funny, direct and unavoidable. I am a very spontaneous and outgoing person, whether it be skipping town at the last minute, or simply trying something new.
I take people at face value, so honesty is very important to me. I'm interested in meeting people who are passionate about what they do, and respect others for who they are. I enjoy music, art & design oriented expeditions, but I also will not pass-up any opportunity to be near or in the water, the sky, or to experience something I have never done. I love the water, whether it be swimming, kayaking or simply watching it from ashore.
My family and friends are wonderful and just being with them provides me with more fun than maybe I should have in a given moment. I enjoy concerts and museums as well as travel. I like to wander aimlessly as I am a bit of a loner. Perhaps this is why I love the ocean so much. It seems like such a lonely empty place on the surface, but it contains more life than I can ever imagine.
People watching is my favorite sport. Actually its soccer ;-)~ However, I am a fly on the wall. I am a very open minded person and accept people for who they are. I believe that just as much as I feel I have the right to be whom and what I want to be, anyone else is entitled to the same. Just be yourself, and never feel ashamed to dream.
