Introduction If I had to break myself down, I would be a dirt lovin, tree huggin, sun worshipin, free spirit. I follow my own path and believe that many are lost. I love the saying..."The difference between Intelligence and Wisdom is; Intelligence can be learned from a book, but Wisdom can be learned only through experience." I crave experience and yearn to know what the world has to teach me...not through an institution that puts you in a box but from traveling and seeing the world uncensored. I love nature and I am truly at peace when I am outdoors!
Interests "Why", you ask? "Why" is not the question. How? Now, that is a question worth examining. How could I, being born of such, uh... conventional stock, arrive a leader of the rebellion? An escapist from a conformist world, destined to find happiness only in that which cannot be explained? I brought you here for a reason, but unfortunately you and your ... sentimental minds are doing me no good! My brain is frozen. Locked! I have to break free from this culture of mechanical reproductions and the thick encrustations dying on the surface!"
