Hi, I'm Philip, and I'm Basically Average at Everything

I'd like to think better allows me to relate to others, but that's probably just a dream.

I'm a normal guy from Mississippi, with a thirst for new adventure and experiences. I've somehow found my way to Nashville, Tennessee, where I am just enjoying the ride one day at a time, and attempt to do some dentistry while I'm here.

I struggle with wanting to be comfortable, but I'm aware that growth happens and we better ourselves as individuals when we embrace discomfort and awkwardness. That's one of the reason I love traveling new places. It's one of the reasons I enjoy meeting new people, hearing their stories, and laughing with them.

It's one of the reasons I joined this platform, which I know little about. I don't know what I'm doing, really, but I hope it will challenge me to process stories and life as it happens, and I hope to share that with you.

I plan on sharing stories from neat people I've met, and places I've been fortunate enough to experience... even for the simple fact of helping me to take a second to breathe and enjoy the ordinary. To find joy in the mundane.

I hope you, yes you, person that I don't know...yet, will come alongside me on this platform that I know nothing about, and embrace this awkward journey called life, to share stories, laughs, and experiences. And maybe, just maybe, in the process, we'll learn a little more about each other, ourselves, the world, and how to better all three of those things the short time we're here.

Would love to hear from you!
