Fathom the courage to see things as they really are

About Me

I am not on here to date, yes, I am single, but that is not why I'm on here. On my profile it says I am here to make "FRIENDS" AND I have friends, on here, that I keep in touch with and I listen to music and stuff, that is it, so don't say anything scandalous to me or you will be swiftly BLOCKED, I don't dig that stuff, it freaks me out...Ok,I'm kinda like one of the guys...yet I'm not anything close. I'm strong, Independent, sensitive, caring, loyal, honest (yet not brutal), have a mouth like a sailor,I work hard and I'm compassionate. I am a really laidback person, I like to chill with my friends and that pretty much sums that part up. I am still pretty rebellious in my very own special way. I am not a person who goes around shoving my opinions in other people's faces and I don't like having anyone shove their opinions in my face either, it turns me off completely. I am a Christian, as I personally understand that a Christian would be (I do my best)...and I have great respect for other people and their beliefs, even if they don't believe anything at all, we all feel what we feel in whatever capacity we can. I am extremely opposed to racism, other than that I am not a political person (if that's even political? it only makes sense that everyone is equal). I feel that if you are not there to witness things, you can never really know the truth fully. I like helping people, if noone helped each other, there would be noone left. I'm a pretty darn patient person, but like everyone, I have my limits and find that the older I get, the less patience I have :) I don't take things for granted and don't like being taken for granted. I freaking thrive on being silly with my friends...I am also very serious when I must be,which is unfortunately a lot of the time :( True love, faith, freedom, honesty, health, happiness, wisdom, peace & forgiveness are priceless."Try on someone elses shoes, there's peace in doing it." - me animal layout @ HOT FreeLayouts.com

The Cold

Crap, I really don't want to write this "blog", in many ways, but I feel compelled to do it.  As I wrote in my profile, I am not a very political person, as well as the fact that I don't like sho...
