find and share recovery images at anonymousspace.comI am an electrician by trade and have tried to endure the riggers of college twice in my life but was unable to complete. I was working two jobs and trying to provide and then I was told on fathers day I would be a father for the second time. I majored in Business and accounting. I quit college to concentrate on working and loving my two daughters. I now am employed to a Company I have worked for since 1998. I am now a Purchasing Manager. ***********************************************************

My Interests


find and share recovery images at anonymousspace.com- The thing I love most is spending time with my girls. Even in the arguing moments and the not arguing moments they are my girls! I am sure my mother would have said the same about me. I have two girls, Jordan, my oldest which is sixteen and Chandler which is twelve. I get too see them every other weekend and I enjoy every little moment we have together. Jordan loves horses and as a matter of fact, any animal that God created. I get to take her swimming a couple of times a week and get to spend time with her when I go to Chandler’s basketball games, track meets, and softball games. Well I just told you what Chandler does. She is very competitive and loves sports. Jordan loves drawing and writing stories, drawing and art from her mother and writing from me I suppose.I enjoy the outdoors and nature. It has been a while since I have been camping but love that. Love to smell the outdoors and what the breezes carry around in the air. I love to write, almost about anything and just recently had the love of photography renewed in my soul. I used to hunt but would rather sit quietly in the woods and simply look around and thank God for what he is placed before me. Then, out comes the pen and paper and I try to reflect on how blessed I am for being granted life; my life and my daughters in my life. It is a true blessing to have so much to be thankful for. Often times we do not think we have much at all, but in the scope of all things, we have the joy of life and those that have made a difference in it. Whether good or bad; we learn from it and grow into better individuals and learn to be more humble and caring. Who knows, even more loving of one another?

I'd like to meet:

I have been married only once.With the words of "Through sickness and health, through richer or poorer, till death do you part" Big question,,, "One day and maybe,,, someday I will utter those words again, but it will be because I give my unconditional love and receive unconditional love.I would love to find someone that would love me unconditionally and someone I could love unconditionally. We find ourselves seeking selfish things without the thought of who or how it could hurt. We are all human and make grave mistakes in our lives but forgiveness for all is true love,,, no matter of the faults and weaknesses. Strength through love and honor is a hard fought emotion that keeps two souls traveling together in this world of sorrow and pain. Strength in love means more than simply being a companion. A shoulder to cry on a shoulder to give in time of need, a heart to hold inside forever. Arms to hold, when you hurt and arms to forgive when pain is put upon the unconditional love which two people share. An understanding of both sides of the guanlet of life and love. Just as the vows state, "Through sickness and health, till death do us part." True love can conquer all the pains we face, be them large or small,,,, There is no boundry on absolute true love if it truly comes from the heart.

Music:


MyHotComments
I sing in a classic rock band that has a new twist to old music. A little hard but nothing to complain about. I play the piano, guitar, bass and drums,,, not a master of any but I do enjoy the sounds they make.. The only problem is I haven't played any of these since 1994. I was a pianist for several Churches and Southern Gospel Groups. I gave this up in 1994. I do miss playing.
