Life Philosophy	One of the most important truths I’ve ever come across has been from an entry on David Cain’s ‘Raptitude’ blog called, “88 Important Truths I’ve Learned About Life”. Of all the 88 truths, the one that spoke most to me was, ‘You never have to deal with more than one moment at a time.’ Sometimes I feel like that one sentence saved my life.
I am...	A single father, doing the best that I can in this crazy world to make a good life for my son and myself. I’ve been working on improving myself over the last year or so, and though I have a long way to go, I feel like I’ve made some real progress.
Quotes	“The things we do for love…it’s all for your protection.” -The Shock of Pleasure (This is a Test) “You’re gonna carry that weight.” -Cowboy Bebop “The Four Agreements: Be impeccable with your word. Always do your best. Never make assumptions. Don’t take anything personally.” – Don Miguel Ruiz “We barely know anything, but we believe a whole lot of stuff.” – Manimal “Addiction is a word used to stop people from changing.” – Kyle Cease “When I was a young man, I had liberty, but I did not see it; I had time, but I did not know it; and I had love, but I did not feel it. Many decades would pass before I understood the meaning of all three. And now, in the twilight of my life, this understanding has passed into contentment. Love, liberty, and time–once so disposable, are the fuels that drive me forward. And love–most especially–for you, our children, our brothers and sisters, and for the vast and wonderful world that gave us life and keeps us guessing.” -Ezio Auditore da Firenze, Assassin’s Creed Embers “You see , your fight for survival starts RIGHT now. You don’t want to be judged? You won’t be. You don’t think you’re strong enough? You are. You are afraid–don’t be. You have all the weapons you need…now, FIGHT.” -Sucker Punch “No matter what choices I’ve made, or obstacles I’ve overcome, I continue to search for the life…the life that alludes me.” -Cole McGrath, inFAMOUS 2 “A famous explorer once said that the extraordinary is in what we do, not who we are. In our darkest moments, when life flashes before us, we find something…something that keeps us going. Something that pushes us. When all seemed lost, I found a truth, and I knew what I must become. A SURVIVOR IS BORN.” -Tomb Raider 2011 trailer “Be yourself. Unapologetically. Fucking always.” -taken from an interview with Ke$ha “And, when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.” -The Alchemist “I would never say things that I do not mean. I really do think that’s where most pain originates.” -Maxi “Life gave me lemons, I don’t make lemonade…I’m mad like Cave Johnson–I got lemon grenades!” -’Wish I Had A Portal Gun’

Books	‘The Alchemist’ by Paulo Coelho is one of my all-time favorites–teaches all kinds of lessons for living.
Music	I like pretty much all kinds of music, other than rap and country–I do have a weakness for anything electronic, like synth, dubstep, electronica.
Film & TV	I’m a nerd at heart, so I love all the attention comic book heroes have been getting on the big screen lately–Iron Man, Batman, Spider Man, Thor, Green Lantern, Captain America. I just hope to hell they don’t screw up The Avengers.
