i was born here in Kansas City Missouri. but i've always had a high level of wanderlust. [blush] early on i had a long involvement with non-profit work. making a living as a fundraiser and using that living to organize and agitate for those issues. the groups were varied but mainly focused on social justice and environmental topics.
after trying, unsuccessfully, to establish a more typical home and family routine i happened upon a commercial driving job. driving a sightseeing tour bus here in KC. that lead eventually to my Over The Road job role. i've recently upgraded to A class, tractor-trailer licence.
i love the constant variation of OTR driving. and i've taken a hobby of shooting pitures of the scenery. i've gotten quite a few pictures that i think are worth sharing. (click here to see; http://s19.photobucket.com/albums/b176/wordweaver5/)
but i am also a social creature. and this job requires extended time alone. i might go for weeks talking to no one other than fuel clerks and waitresses. and that brings me to my online experiences. i'm hoping for friendship and longterm contact. but i also have a flirtaceous side. i've been called a charmer.
feel free to ask me about any and all of this.

Section 1: The Sun

Sun in Pisces:

The flowering of compassion, through your ability to merge on a feeling level and to empathize with all, is a key theme for you in this lifetime. This propensity to share others' emotional experience has both its blessings and its deficits. At your finest, thomas, you have a deeply-felt understanding of human nature which goes beyond words or intellect, and which enables you to forgive others' misdeeds and make allowances for their weaknesses. You are acutely aware of others' pain, including the emotional wounds and brokenness they carry within, and your ability to listen with an understanding heart and to unconditionally accept people as they are can be a healing influence in their lives. You are inclined to exclude nobody. At a deep level you feel and know your oneness with all creatures, and thus every snail in the garden or stray cat is part of your "heart's family".

However, this same all-embracing emotional/psychic openness and receptivity can be the source of some of your greatest challenges in life. It is easy for you to become overwhelmed by the world and its sorrows, and to seek some form of escape from it and from your own extreme sensitivity; for instance, over using drugs or alcohol or even food to alter your mood, or retreating from life into the unreal world of television or other diversions. You may simply withdrawing into your own private fantasies to avoid confronting the challenges in the physical world. At its worst this tendency can devolve into evasiveness and playing ostrich "about important issues in your life". While your imagination and your sensitivity are the well spring of some of your richest experiences and gifts, if over indulged you may become passive, ineffectual, lost or confused. Especially when young, thomas, you may lack a strong sense of self, of definition and identity, because on a feeling level you identify with others so easily. It can be difficult for you to separate yourself, to know what your boundaries are, when to say no or how to stand up for your own personal interests. Since you are not narrowly focused on self, others may take advantage of your natural generosity and sympathy. Learning and incorporating the concepts of discrimination and clear judgment will enable you to give of yourself in ways that are healthy for you and the ones you are giving to.
