About Me

salutations! new to this,i'm raph,and heres a little about myself.first and foremost, i'm a born again christian(and i've probably died more times than i'd like to admit). i've learned a lot of things, and have had a lot of unbelievable experiences in my lifetime and my mission is to share these with others.besides that, i'm a 22 year old gemini,born in boston. i'm single, but i'm not really looking for a relationship of that nature here, i'm presently looking for trustworthy associates. ihe most important thing that i will say about myself is that i honestly try to live by the golden rule.For general interest, some physical features include:i'm black(and maybe native-american!?)growing locks...for about 2 years now,5'10" and 180 lbs, thats about it..."Haply for i am black, and have not those soft parts of conversation that chamberers have; or for i am declined tnto the vale of years—yet that’s not much— she’s gone. i am abused, and my relief must be to loathe her. O curse of marriage, that we can call these delicate creatures ours and not their appetites! i had rather be a toad and live upon the vapor of a dungeon than keep a corner in the thing i love for others’ uses. yet ’tis the plague of great ones; prerogatived are they less than the base. ’tis destiny unshunnable, like death."-othello
