love spending time on things that they say don't deserve it and laughing uncontrollably when I'm alone. I like xtreme city snow biking and living with too many crazy people and never having time to sit down because you only live once and there's so much shit to DO, right? I think I'm smart because I'm starting to know how much I don't know and to respect the questions because they have power. Sometimes I love myself so much I'm ashamed, and sometimes I know it's the only way I'll be able to do anything worthwhile in this world, and lord knows shit is fucked up.

Keep me away from the wisdom which does not cry, the philosophy which does not laugh and the greatness which does not bow before children. -Khalil Gibran

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."
Marianne Williamson

cutting hair, fixing bikes

My butt

a hot glue gun, weird people around me, exercise, the radio, wine, talking about power dynamics

every 7 years I have a whole new physical body; race and my whiteness; the tension between blowing people's minds (because someone's got to do it) and building obstacles to connection and relationships; work; new age-y health food eating habits (post vegetarianism/semi-freegan/fridge-an, pro butter); activity/event planning

working or drinking

if you're not boring and have shit to talk about
