To whatever Extent

    Hello to whoever is reading. This marks the beginning of a new adventure for me. For a majority of my life I have been bound by my culture and background. I ineffectively floated through a pretty normal life, but the spark that was inside me had no room to grow. I was bounded by the cultures around me including being cool, beeing attractive, and being good at sports. It hasn't been tell the last few years of my life that I have been able to cut these cultural ties and to become a happy, care-free and loving person. I have found the means to achieve my goals, and to find what can truly make us happy. This Blog is meant to inspire you as these things are inspiring me. I hope that through my adventures you can also learn and yearn to find yourself as well. I am going to let my whole personality flow through these words, so there might be music and weird poetry or stories thrown in but I promise you that you will be enterntained. If asked "Where are you going?" I'd like to answer"To whatever extent,"


              But For Now,

We'll say HAWAII!

Hawaii.

Yes thats right, I'm going back to Hawaii. I was there for all of 2012 and loved every waking moment of it. I came home for Christmas and basically got talked into staying in utah. I got a job that would provide me with a considerable amount of income that would be great for someone my age. Well I jumped onto the opportunity only to realize that this was not the type of life I wanted to be living. I decided that I need to go back to Hawaii and spend some time out there. Now this doesnt mean I didn't have an amazing time home in Utah. In fact if it wasn't for the people I've met or the experiences I've had, I would have never been able to go back. So as I type I am quitting my job, I also bought my ticket to Hawaii leaving Wednesday the 12th. I found my dad's old sea bags from Nam so Imma take those to pack all my gear in. I will be living on couches and camping and surfing and playing music and going on all sorts of adventures. 

I am deeply interested in expanding my consciousness, transceding my culture, and promoting peace and love to those I meet. This Blog will share some of these stories as I feel the need to share them. This Blog mainly is an outlet for my mind. I will share thoughts, feelings, and actions. Not to brag or to boast but to entertain, enlighten, and inspire. Where will these adeventures lead? to whatever Extent.

    This made me curious: what are your goals, and what truly makes you happy?

    I can understand wanting to change some cultural norms. Just don't get all weird on me ha. Gonna miss you bro.
