This is my personal site, A.K.A. Barry Hurd
Online consultant, designer, writer, marketer, entrepreneur, and father.
In my years of navigating through various challenges I have come to believe that there is a “True Love of Coffee” within all of us.
So many of the words here put to paper; love, romance, compassion, angst, beauty, nature, forgiveness, grief, isolation, regret, knowledge, hate, empathy, joy, freedom, ecstasy, hope, loss, faith, envy, despair, wisdom, pain, suffering, need, want, serenity, horror, respect, honor, solitude, friendship, companionship, lust, pride, greed, purity, and truth.The words, poems, lyrics, stances, melodies, rants, and unleashed ideas here will be the reality of what I know.
Perhaps it will bring my spirit peace, knowing that my thoughts have been etched to paper, that my creativity is alive and well… and that I love.
Nothing is more important really. It has taken years to understand myself and the chaos of the world as everything evolves around me. The simple joy of the sun rise or a drop of rain falling to the ground has shown me how to live.
This writing is simply a glimpse of what I thought, how I felt it, and the words I tried to use to describe it. In the end many of these writings express something within me and hopefully a few of them help you express them too. For me at least; writing poetry gives me an outlet for feelings that many people are not even comfortable talking about.
Who am I?
I am a romantic, trusting man that appreciates life in all it’s wonder and seek friends who are willing to try something new and explore them with me. I love to work creatively with my hands and my mind.
I am detail oriented, but I am also willing to jump right into the water and deal with details later. My friends and family describe me as being successful, intelligent, funny, creative, patient, and loving. I’m a person who takes what life gives me and tries to make the most out of it (most often with a smile or at least a grin).
I work hard to improve the situations I find myself in. I have a sense of humor and sometimes find myself looking at a room full of people who are laughing at me. I also tend to be pushed in front of the pack as a leader whether or not I volunteered for the position. I also have a belief in being a gentleman with a sense of honesty, trust, morality, ethics, compassion, love, and chivalry.
