Profile Information
- Are you Vegetarian, Vegan or something else?
- I became a vegetarian in highschool, but wasn't strict about it until college. about 2 years later I went vegan. I've always loved animals, valued them as companions, and respected them as fellow earthlings. Becoming vegan was just a natural progression.
- About Me:
- I consider other vegans and vegetarians to be family. We share the same compassion and awareness that is so difficult to find in everyday life like work or even a church. I feel a great passion for the beauty in the world around me, but simultaneously frustrated with society's blindness. I'm a musician, a private poet, a reluctant photographer, a digital artist, an extroverted introvert, and a (liberal) apophatic panentheistic Christian Buddhist that strives for quietism. There's times when I think that I'm going to collapse under the weight of the world... and other times I feel I'm going to burst from being overwhelmed by it's beauty.
- I'm interested in philosophy, sociology, & theology.
- I strongly support gay rights.
- I'm straight! (just for the record).
- I feel as much at home in an electronica club as i do hiking the blue ridge mountains.
- politically, I'm neither republican nor democrat, but rather an independent moderate.
- i am vegan and animal rights advocate.
- I am an abolitionist (as defined by gary francione).
- I am a seeker.
- I am a skeptic.
- I'm a musician & indie record label owner.
- I am an environmentalist.
- I study herbal medicine and natural healing.
- I have strong, evolving opinions.
- I am a Yeshuaist.
- I love life so much it hurts.
please feel free to contact me by IM at any time. i'm not stuck up or a snob.

- "not until we extend our circle of compassion to all living beings will we ourselves know peace."
[albert schweitzer] - "it is a fine thing to establish one's own religion in one's heart, not to be dependent on tradition and second-hand ideals. life will seem to you, later, not a lesser, but a greater thing."
[d.h. lawrence] - "live the change you want to see in the world."
[mahatma gandhi]
