These are my Credo-ntials

My outlook on life, as I imagine with most people, is constantly changing and evolving as I get older. I'm a firm believer in treat others as you would like to be treated. Smile, hold a door open, use "please" and "thank you", or even just saying "excuse me". I have a tendency of putting others before myself. I will go out of my way to help a friend because I firmly believe that they would do the same for me. As far as politics goes, I consider myself a Libertarian. I dislike the fact we feel the need to define our beliefs as simple as Republican, Democrat, Christian, Catholic, Atheist,...etc. We label ourselves and that in turn makes it more socially acceptable for others to label us as well. My main goal in life is to leave a positive mark on the world. Whether it be through my children (If I have any), through my work, or even if it's convincing a few people to have a brighter outlook on how to treat each other. If I'm having a bad day, just one stranger being nice to me can make the world of difference. I just like to be that catalyst for turning someones day in the right direction.

Screw Blue, Go Green


The color blue. Who cares. Green is where it’s at. Blue is the color of the sky, where as green is the color of grass and the earth. Ok I guess blue isn’t all that bad. Blue water, Blue man group, Blue Oyster Cult, and of course sad people look blue. Green stands out as more vibrant to me though. The mountains of Ireland and Scotland look like green moss covered monster hills. You can just slide down the hill with a tube. Dark forest green, as if in the middle of an old growth forest. The color itself seems wise and calm almost as if it’s personality shines proudly.
