About me
I think of every person in this world as the cause for a sort of ripple effect. The world changes at least a little bit every day, and you and I are part of that change. I am a Libra by birth and by nature - I am constantly trying to find the good in everyone and the balance in everything. My middle name probably should be compromise.
I am very outspoken, and always stand up for what I believe is right. I try my very hardest to be respectful of other people's opinions. I will not force my beliefs onto you, as I believe everyone is entitled to their own opinion. But I will show you my perspective, and I encourage you to show me yours, as long as you are willing to explain why you believe what you believe. Simply making a statement and saying you believe it is narrow-minded and ignorant; knowing why you believe it and actually having a reason why is the key to understanding and many times enlightenment. If I offend you with my opinions and beliefs, it is not my intention, but it is my right.
I am a strong supporter of human rights. I believe everybody should be treated equally; I believe as John Locke did, that we are born with unalienable rights to life, liberty, and property. I dream of a world in which the word EVERYBODY will really include EVERYBODY, regardless of color, size, shape, background, education, religion, gender, and sexuality. If we stripped every person in this world of their sight, maybe then we could all see a little better.

"Let us not seek the Republican answer or the Democratic answer, but the RIGHT answer. Let us not seek to fix the blame for the past. Let us accept our own responsibility for the future." - John F. Kennedy
