I have been described as being fascinated by kaleidoscopes -
refering to interesting people and new things that is. Mostly I
like doing fascinating things with fascinating people - it's always
better with a buddy.
I have an insatiable
travel bug - I love immersing myself in
new cultures and learning about people...
Now in Japanese
OMOSHIROI DESUNE!!!
Oo, good question.
I am - trying to figure that out.
Otherwise, training my mind to
ask God first.
...and then respond to / follow through with / be content with His
answer.
I also travel - a LOT. Avid
surfer if you will ;-)
Edit:
I am really fascinated by things taught by people like those out at
the Bethel Church in Redding, CA and people like Jay Pathak (and
his podcasts).

God, Love, Forgiveness, Hope,
Dreaming, Music
Parenting. I dedicate an uncanny amount of time daydreaming about
parenthood. Not gonna lie. I find myself gleaning the 'waiting to
be adopted' profiles at 2am now too.....
Oh, and serving people. I've been noticing this a lot lately... My
daydream tends to consist of travelling the planet, bringing
healing and helping unify communities - teaching the church to care
for each other and love (verb) each other through action... like...
someone happens to mention that they're not feeling well and
they're worried they wont be able to finish painting their house
before winter comes around - so we all show up at their house later
that day with paint brushes, and cleaning supplies, and gardening
tools, and car washing soap, and veggie noodle soup.
I've been dreaming about this on and off over the years and every
single night for the last 2 weeks.... Definitely on my heart.
Other than that, I spend a disturbing amount of time thinking about
food... though nowadays it's mostly a toggle between mangos,
bananas and pizza....
Writing music.
Listening to Jay Pathak.
Something lame.
Sitting on a computer.
Watching a movie.
Working a gig.
Playing board games with my rooms and our friends.
Reading.
Hangin with a new surfer.
Wandering town.
Treasure Hunting with friends.
Working extra hours so I can escape the country....
On a plane out of the country...
Dreaming...
Ask me I guess....
