fierystatehotel

I do what I do in the name of mystery, and I find great reward in going after the unknown. I seek out others who believe this is a technicolor world we live in. I aspire to be vivid, to be visceral, to connect. And I believe we owe each other that, as human beings... and that we are inevitably all connected in consciousness no matter what we believe. I grew up in a little town full of oddities and shaded, historical corners where I could literally breathe in the past and feel the future. If that's just my little town.... what else is out there?
