Most people that meet me say I was born in the wrong millennium. I love hunting and being outdoors. A walk through the woods is heaven for me. I love my family more than life, and that has taken a long time to develop, albeit also a bit of growing up and maturation. I will to talk to anyone who wishes to talk to me, I love a good conversation and believe that any good conversationalist has much to offer to the world. I have a degree in Philosophy, and am continuing my studies in pursuit of a second B.A. in English Writing. I hope to become a professor of Philosophy and a published writer someday. I have lived in Germany and I now speak both German and Spanish, and would still like to learn Arabic. I believe knowledge and wisdom are the greatest things that one can possess, in addition to meekness and sensitivity.
"A sword is never enough. The mind is also a weapon, but like the sword it must be honed and kept sharp...What I shall seek tomorrow, I do not know. Today, I seek only to know. My mind asks questions for which i have no answers. Within me there is a loneliness for knowledge. I would know what is thought by wise men and what is believed in other lands, far from here. I would open the dark and empty avenues of my mind to the brightness of a new sun and populate it with ideas."
