all about Me
Since I first whacked together a profile for my blog, my life has turned on its head several times and I've discovered I rather enjoy the cartwheeling. Having, then losing, and rebuilding again and again teaches me what I really need in my life and reminds me that the rest can be pleasant but also damned distracting.Below is the original bio text, which I still really like, and it still works:
Here I am, trying to cram my personality into a tiny text field. I'm never going to fit. I'm always growing and changing, and I'm into mortality. (By that I mean that I am glad that I am aware that I will someday die, that I'm just a creature, that nothing lasts forever. It discourages procrastination and encourages me to enjoy every minute of my life.)
I think that the key to a happy life is the ability to change perspective--it makes it possible to understand others, and keeps me from being traumatized by things that I've experienced in life, thus enabling me to learn from those things.
That's me--mortal, optimistic, fortunate. And crammed into a tiny box.

I wanna meet people who inspire those around them with their posture alone but break hearts when they dance, people who are brave and sincere, people who know of other languages and cultures and are willing to share their knowledge with me, old books and photographs, music that I have to fall into....
