About Me


Isn't it funny how when we are really young, we seem to know exactly who we are, and what we stand for. We have life all figured out, and then something happens... you grow up (or should I say, get older), and all you seem to know, is that you really don't know. I mean sure, I know there are some things about me that are pretty obvious... I'm latino, 5'11", etc... But what about the stuff on the inside that makes up the real person I am. Sure most of us would like to think we have some qualities such as honesty & integrity, but can we truly say that we've always been honest? About everything? Yeah, no, I didn't think so. So instead of filling this section out with a lot of things that I would like you to believe about me, I'd rather we become friends and you can see for yourself the type of person I am. Because honestly, I'm still trying to figure it out myself...and probably will until the day I die. I'm far from perfect, that's all I know.

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails." 1 Cor 13:4-8

My Interests

Against my love shall be, as I am now, With Time's injurious hand crush'd and o'er-worn; When hours have drain'd his blood and fill'd his brow With lines and wrinkles; when his youthful morn Hath travell'd on to age's steepy night, And all those beauties whereof now he's king Are vanishing or vanish'd out of sight, Stealing away the treasure of his spring; For such a time do I now fortify Against confounding age's cruel knife, That he shall never cut from memory My sweet love's beauty, though my lover's life: His beauty shall in these black lines be seen, And they shall live, and he in them still green.



I'd like to meet:

Mama, I carry your heart...

How do you say good-bye?   It's so hard to believe it's been 2 weeks since I got the phone call that my grandmother had passed away.  You know, I say grandmother, but what I really mean is "...

What Next

The clock is counting down, and I can feel myself running out of time.  Two options lay ahead.  One, do I continue living the life of a free spirit as I have been doing my entire life. ...
