Me

What can be said about "ME"?

My faith in God is always first in my life.

I can be the coolest friend you will ever have that is until you do me wrong.

I will never intentionally hurt someone; pain is the last thing anyone wants to feel.

At times I can be a bit complex.

In new surroundings I find myself staying quiet until I warm up to people; hence I'm not quite the people person at first sight.

I cannot stand drama.

I cannot stand GHETTO MESS.

At the current moment I am not where I want to be in life.

I am accident prone...so don't stand to close to me!!

I always seem to have the craziest situations happen to me.

I am very compassionate to others.

I feel there is nothing better than a well educated man.

I feel there is nothing better than a good looking dark skin man....I don't discriminate, but they do something to me and my insides...woo!!!

I plan on traveling the world....Ancient Rome, Greece, Milan, Fiji, Brazil, South Africa...you get the picture.

I love being me and will do nothing out of the ordinary to not be me.

I don't have time for the foolishness...men, friends, family, situations, or anything else that may classify.

I may not speak on everything I see, but rest assure I do observe and take mental notes.

Don't take me being nice and quiet for a weakness....I do have a mouthpiece and will use it with not problem.

Eye Wonder

Look at this precious face. You would never know that she has to live in some of the harshest living condtions I've ever seen. On my second trip to Gauyaquil, Ecuador as a missionary I the chance to take this picture. I saved the picture in black and white mode so you could see the true power behind those eyes. I only saw what it was like for her for a day so I can only imagine what she sees on a daily basis. Its now a year later and I can only wonder if I will see this baby again. When I look in her eyes I see a story of pain, struggle, and future triumphs. I know she will be tested, but I have faith in God that she will be a virtuous woman one day.


Journey 2 The Past

I've been down this road many times over. Some days I find myself traveling this road while at work or when trying to go to sleep. I find myself walking on a never ending road that leads to nowhere. Nowhere meaning I have some unresolved issues that have plagued me for some time now.

My walk starts in my teenage years. Those years where not fun for me at all. There were many internal demons that followed me as well as the physical demons that went to school with me. Instead of dealing with my issues I learned to internalize them. I masked my loneliness with fake smiles and masked my insecurities with toughness. All the while I felt as if my world was coming down around me........old feelings surface.....I feel the need to bring my journey into the present.

Its okay to remember the past but frequent journeys can hinder the soul. Healing my soul is primary focus right now. That is why I must end my journey to the past.
