“Life is most exciting when we are put in the uncomfortable position of having to evaluate our beliefs.”

“I am not a perfectionist…if you believe that your best is good enough, you will find happiness. The unknown can be exciting and full of opportunity but you have to be involved and you have to be able to evolve.”

“I don’t want to accidentally end up looking back on my life to find that I’m ashamed of myself, I want to live a life I can be proud of.”

“I took big, hungry bites out of life, and I'm still not full.”

“Truthfully, if you want to remember me, do it now. I won’t give a shit when I’m dead.”

“Sifting through long forgotten stories of my childhood and writing on a daily basis, I became obsessed with following the threads of my memories, one leading to another.

Sometimes, I find have tugged a whole, hidden tapestry of my past into view, one thread at a time.”
