As well as a Promising Photographer, a Published Poet, and a Head Strong believer in A Better World. First off this is the year I will pour myself in working for myself. I love to take pictures and I love to pull the you I meet out. Besides cropping some pictures I dont edit the shots I take. Why doctor a picture if the person you meet from your picture isnt you? So this is the year I want to develop my skills, make more then Ive ever made and travel doing what I love. As The Prophet says Love is Work, Made Visible.

Second, after finding myself screaming at a taxi cab driver I realized with some help the chi must flow better in my life. Frustration comes in knowing I expected better from this life. That there was a path I dreamed of as a kid a person I meant to be that I still need to become. So its time to pick up my pen and find that me. Ive stopped for a while now writing. I used to write every day. A poem a day was what I thought I wanted to write when I was in high school. Now I know its not the number you write, but the depth that you dwell that matters more. To me, now.

I will heading down the back roads and highways of California in June on the 4th AIDS Lifecycle. Im rider 5490 if you want to read more about me and the ride. I will be captaining the Team BEAR group of Northern California. A great group of guys and girls. Have you ever tried to get a den full of bears to move at once? You need a bull dozer, some honey and a few bees to really get them moving. Wish me luck as we go into five months of fund raising, I will need it. And a prayer.

And as I heard on the ride last year Best of Luck to You. Peace

I want to meet someone who has seen the front line of
life ... and still wants to fight. I want a snuggle buddy
who likes to wake up warm and toasty with a playful man in
bed. Who likes flannel sheets, hot chocolate, and Trees.
Who, even if he doesnt put on a suit and tie for work ...
would wear it to make a dream of mine come true. :) Who
isnt afraid of the words twisted, strange, or deep.
