i know there's a lot more i need to learn before i can even change the world,

or maybe that smaller changes make a bigger impact than we think

i am staying:

free rent

to become more involved in the city

to learn how to love

to enjoy more great coffee and hopefully learn how to produce more of it for a better price all around, improving lives of coffee farmers { can't get away from saving the world}

sometimes i have to remind myself where i came from to keep moving forward. 

i think its the history major in me.
