About Me

"You've got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don't settle." -Steve Jobs
"I do buy the idea we are flawed, that there is something in us that is broken. I think it easier to do bad things than good things. And there is something in that basic fact, some little clue to the meaning of the universe. I know now from experience that the path to joy winds through this dark valley...and that nothing is going to change in this world until you and I figure out what is wrong with the person in the mirror."

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who can just sit back and be themself and talk about life and listen. Fun people with adventure and excitment to share. People that don't know Jesus or just want to talk about him. People who care about the little moments, that look at the heart and follow their dreams and then challenge those around them. Those who inspire, who encourage, who learn patience, endure, trust, honor, respect and choose humilty. Those who depend on no one, but God and seek to please Him. People that belive fighting for their own heart coexists in fighting for your brother's. That choose to guard their hearts and preserve it. Those that refuse to let doubt, pain or past forlorn experiences stop them in their pursuit of life and fullness. Those who believe in Truth and Love. The ones who care and choose to see past the eyes and discover the stories behind them. As for the rest Jesus, John, Moses, Elijah, Steven Spielberg, W. Churchill, M. Luther King Jr., Abraham Lincoln, Mel Gibson, Robin Williams and of course, last but most definitely not the least, my wife.
