Location: http://open.salon.com/blog/jmitch79, Illinois,
Birthday: June 29

Company: my own, mostly

Bio: I am a 30 year cattle farmer. I have 4 children (3 girls and 1 boy) who range in age from 7 years down to 2 months. I am married, been with the same woman now for 10 years. I have worked as a cook, salesman, tailor, engineer's assistant, and also a bomb maker . I have been writing my entire life (really I mean that like all of it even way down into 'em baby years) and still, feh, not so good. I wish there was more to say about me but no such luck. Oh, yes you can all just call me, Jesse. I have seen the trouble people have when replying to me and they find that they must use that awkward JMitch79 business...so my name is Jesse and you may call me by it.

No matter what Earth these hands have moved. No matter what drowning people brought to dry land. No matter what holes filled by my short being. No matter what souls met, wild ecstatic, indifferent or erratic. No matter what sweet sentence constructed and uttered plainly, either short or over long. No matter the random chances and the pleasures left, by mistake, far behind. I am nothing but naked in the storm. Silent and obscure...unaware. Naked in the fog of the storm, unseen until the quick blazing instant lightning strike of light. And then again invisible...gone forever and never to return because no matter what wonder i cause or behold...the truth will always be...all my life is nothing but someone else's memory.

That may be so, but we can make the memories precious for that someone. That's what makes life worth living for. ~R~

I find it intersting that your blog was what drew me to O/S in the first place on a google search and now, here we are somewhere around a year later and the title of this caught my eye randomly on the sidebar... I love this post, I will have to read you more often! ~R~
