Im just a guy who likes reading, writing and loves the beauty of words. How they can make you laugh, cry, and alter your way of thinking forever. Words simply fascinate me. I'm always writing and reading. It's nice to find an audience who share my interests. When you're young it's apparently not 'cool' to read and write. But I'm the sort of guy who doesn't really care if others think bad of him. Peace, love and beautiful words.
