Welcome to one of my many worlds! Here, I am allowing you to walk free through my thoughts and ideas. So be a courteous visitor, don't judge those in-development thoughts too harshly, and make sure not to believe anything you read! What I really mean is, even though you may be walking in my head, don't lose your own head. One can learn and grow from anything, so long as they know the art of perspective. So I am hoping you'll find this site a place of learning and growth, if only I can at least tilt your perspective with my tiltiness. :)

Now even though this site is part of the virtual reality we call the internet, and this paragraph is transporting you into the mind's world of meaning through written communication...why don't I tell you a bit about the person who's currently writing this in that forever transforming world we like to call reality.
Without lingering on unnecessary details like name, age, gender, or nationality, I'll tell you something about my purpose in life.
To start with, I am a human. Just like you! I'm sure we have plenty in common, like those millions of deep mysteries that I bet neither of us have really come to understand. But I'll ramble on about mysteries and understanding on a different page. Here is what they call an introduction to me.
My way of life is as open as I can make it. I learn and grow from all that I can, I continually practice the arts of life, and I allow my awareness and sense of free will to expand through every experience and beautiful moment.
To voice a simple, deep truth, I have a passion for life.
And I have a purpose in life. No, not some divine plan or silly fantasy involving fate, destiny, and a generous portion of bullshit. I like to be real. And I don't like to restrict myself with rules, definitions, or rigid plans. In this sketch of a profile, I am not going to be filling out a quiz as if the answers were written on my forehead. And I'm not going to be filling out a spec sheet as if I was for sale. So me let get one thing straight before I continue. I am a mystery, I cannot be defined, and I change and grow on a daily basis.
Remember this: A definition can be written down in a dictionary. A meaning has a life of its own. Do not confuse the two. And that is how I can tell you a bit about who I am--with meaning derived from simple descriptions and metaphors. And I love metaphors. Metaphors connect the dots in life so that you can see the big picture in life. Do you see what I mean?
So first, here are the descriptions. I study engineering, I work on my novel, I write short stories, I listen to music, I hike and explore, I go free-running with parkour, I improvise invisible theatre, I ask questions, and I ponder a lot of ideas.
From all the links in the above paragraph, you're sure to realize some things about me. So what more can I say? You may get to know me through my thoughts and ideas on this site, and you may leave the real idea for if you ever meet me in person.
