About Me

First things first, my name is Aaron, I'm confined to a wheelchair caused by the neuromuscular disease Duchenne muscular dystrophy. If anyone is interested further, there's a lot of information out there. Now on to what really says who I am...

Art, music, and nature are my main passions. I love art, though I haven't done much myself lately as it's gotten harder for me. My favorite artist is Alex Grey, introduced to me by the band Tool. Some of my other favorites are A. Andrew Gonzalez and Zdzislaw Beksinski.

Cooking is another passion I have, when I get around to it. It can be quite enjoyable and stress-relieving. I have a big interest in space and astronomy as well, and anything about nature in general. Spending time outdoors is a must for me, whether it be taking a walk, star-gazing, or just looking at the environment.

I tend to be the silent, thinking type. I find life to be quite unusual at times, so I often view it from a "observers" perspective (if that makes sense). I believe it's important to look out at the cosmos and nature, and most importantly within ourselves, so we can hopefully get a better sense of the world and our place in it. I'm here to meet new people and discuss this unique experience called life. Feel free to contact me about anything, I'm a very opened minded person.

"The world is like a ride in an amusement park. And when you choose to go on it you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are. And the ride goes up and down and round and round. It has thrills and chills and it's very brightly coloured and it's very loud and it's fun, for a while. Some people have been on the ride for a long time and they begin to question: "Is this real, or is this just a ride?" And other people have remembered, and they come back to us, they say, 'Hey, don't worry, don't be afraid, ever, because this is just a ride.'" ~ Bill Hicks
