Talk about myself... this is one of the most difficult endeavours to undertake (for me anyway). I opt to listen to people, too really hear what they are saying, to be empathic. So many individuals speak a great deal today and end up saying nothing at all. Most people I see from day to day are living life as drones, they wonder aimlessly thorough life only existing. Many are quick to point, judge by prejudice, lead a life of lies and try to elevate their stature by berating others.

I see complexity in the "so called" simple things and tranquility in chaos. Chaos is an order which all things exists in and it is a natural state. Dim lit places are where I am most comfortable and enjoy remaining in the shadows...to be on the fringe looking in (a zone of comfort for me if you wish). Never seeking the limelight, seclusion is always a welcomed compainion. Creativity often finds me during periods of depression or dark mood swings.

Acquiring knowledge is of a constant pursuit and must always be tempered with compassion. Knowledge and compassion are a universal constant - as you learn more about others and the world you live in, you gain a refined understanding of who and what you are. As we journey through life we continuously evolve or for some others, unfortunately - devolve.

Listening to music is my drug of choice as you can experience euphoria or disparity, The lyrics of Gothic music holds many turths for me. Art is also a passion as it is all around us, in machines, in sculpture or on canvas...a window into the mind if you will. Dare to know more?
