Wild Fact About Me I am an anarchist.
My Philosophy Human beings are inherently peaceful, cooperative and generous. It's when we try to impose our will on each other that disharmony arises.
What Gives Me Hope
If I were Mayor, I'd make the world a better place by I would never be a mayor, governor or president because I am opposed to hierarchy in all forms.
What/who changed my life and why The Freedom Manifesto by Tom Hodgekinson, because I began to clearly see the destructive, violent nature of our capitalist system. Several years ago, The Chalice & the Blade by Riane Isler and The Values of Belonging by Carol Flinders opened my eyes to the possibility of gentle, cooperative human societies.
What Bugs Me cars, wal-mart, shopping malls, arrogance, over-consumption, wastefulness, factory farms, Animal Cruelty, littering  
Passions Lake Michigan, plants, trees, flowers, my kitty cats, my lovely daughter, anarchy, swimming, the written word  
Inspirations  
What Scares Me brainwashing, Born Again Christians, violence of any kind
