Verve!

verve (vûrv)
n.
  1. Energy and enthusiasm in the expression of ideas, especially in artistic performance or composition: The revival lacked the verve of the original musical.
  2. Vitality; liveliness..

So I've left my Xanga home in favor of this one. I'm not sure why, except that everything in my life, for the most part, has changed in the past year or so, and it only seems fitting.

Between India and going crazy and being homeless and having my life dissected in the national media and trying to turn my life into something worthwhile with my adopted family and the activism I've been doing,

I just don't feel particularly misled, anymore. Not that I have completely untangled life, because who ever does? But I think that my actions these days are a lot more directed, thought out, and guided than they were 5 years ago.

I'm replacing my aimlessness and angst with energy, life, activism; or trying to.

"We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us." - and that is what I intend to do.
