eternally new. Only he knows the secret of change, only he knows truly that
all things are crouched in eagerness to become something else, and it is
from this universal tension that he draws his power."
Peter Beagle, The Last Unicorn, page 138
I guess I am trying to figure out just who and what I am right now. I know I love people though, and everything I do centers around that, iuncluding the fact I am studying Anthropology at Simon Fraser University.
I think life is too short to not sing, meet people, and travel at any given chance.
I have friends I couldn't live without. I am still looking for the man I choose to settle down with, but that is ok with me for now. I am not too often angsty, but life gets to me as much as anyone else.
I believe in karma, and I follow the golden rule. I would walk through fire before letting any of my friends hurt.
I do NOT like people who are constantly negative, unfriendly, make caustic comments about what others look like just for fun, and who enjoy being assholes. Not to mention drama. If I say something that offends you, ask for clarification, use your words like an adult. Chances are it is a misunderstanding, don't assume anything. If you are any of the above, you'd better either hide it from me, or take off. I have enough stress in my life without adding poisonous people to it.
One day I'll be a famous Anthropologist/teacher/Motivational speaker/Political figure/Lawyer.
Just watch me!
