Pray The Rain Will Stop

About Me

im a critical realist. I just thought you should know that. I go to biola university and i love it, although i miss all my friends and family back home but it is far better for everyone that i am out here. I am in a constant state of longing, i feel this isnt a bad thing but rather the bitter reality of the time and world in which we find ourselve. I belive Jesus is the son of God and the hope of the world. However that doesnt mean im some backwater mondernist that is too scared to admit that some things just arnt objective. Ive lived a pretty full life and ive spent much time contemplating what ive seen and heard, and ive learned alot about God and truth from some of the most unlikely people and places to say that all of life is black and white. I do believe there are rights and wrongs and i generally find myself on the wrongs side of the spectrum. I love to learn and think everyone i meet has something to teach me. Life is a weird place and we all grew up in and learned in different enviroments, that doesnt necesarily mean one is more right than the other but it does mean that we can all learn and teach eachother something, even if its something we already know just from another perspective. I think all people deserve to be loved, if for no reason than the fact that i enjoy it when someone loves me and others need to feel good as well. I also get really annoyed when people think that i have to prove the existance of God. As if the idea of God is really more rediculous than the idea that two giant meteors collided and somehow threw this entire galaxy into being including you and me and all the intricate emotions and thoughts and relationships that we are capable of, i mean seriously think about that.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

anyone, I think i could learn something from everyone.
