I LOVE to write poetry... I also love to sew. Might sound nerdy but its fun, and def a great skill to have. Umm.. I love the outdoors.. Soaking up the sun, boating, fishing... Love to dance, and actually Im rather good. Cant forget shopping and cooking! I like poker. Haven't played much but have spent MANY hours watching at the casino. I have the game down, but not to great when it comes to betting! :)

Three passions have governed my life:
The longings for love, the search for knowledge,
And unbearable pity for the suffering of [humankind].
Love brings ecstasy and relieves loneliness.
In the union of love I have seen
In a mystic miniature the prefiguring vision
Of the heavens that saints and poets have imagined.
With equal passion I have sought knowledge.
I have wished to understand the hearts of [people].
I have wished to know why the stars shine.
Love and knowledge led upwards to the heavens,
But always pity brought me back to earth;
Cries of pain reverberated in my heart
Of children in famine, of victims tortured
And of old people left helpless.
I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot,
And I too suffer.
This has been my life; I found it worth living. B.R

It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes short again and again, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause, who at best knows achievement and who at the worst if he fails at least fails while daring greatly so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.(T.R.)

First and foremost, my mommy. Her footprints are my own! Without her and the strength she embedded into my soul, I would be nothing. I also look up to my dad and KB. Their faith and love of the lord is SO INSPIRING!! One day I shall have the faith and love in Christ as they do! My brother Bryan, he is just AMAZING!! Bryan (as well as Matty) is the child all parents DREAM of having. From day one he has been my best friend. He amazes me everyday! My little bubby Matthew (the redneck of the fam), sissy loves you SOOO much!! Your strength through your recent illness was AMAZING!! Can’t forget my little Jayda Beth.. Although she tests and pushes me over the limit every second that she gets, I WOULDN’T BE WHO I AM RIGHT NOW WITHOUT HER!!! Joshua, my sweet Joshua… I look up to you for SO MANY things. Your determination and success is overwhelming. I love your priorities in life as well as the love you give each day. I’m not lucky to have you, but BLESSED!! I love you all dearly!
