One time someone asked me to sum myself up in one word.... at first I thought this was an impossible task since there are so many facets to a person....but then I realized I could sum it all up, and I came up with Human... BUT wait aren’t we all human, and how does that sum up just me.... BUT what does it really mean to be fully human?...................................................... .......................................................... Human Beings are body-persons created in the image of the Trinity, are endowed with intellects and wills, so they can make a free, total, faithful, and fruitful gift of themselves, in and through their bodies, for each other’s good, and thus form a communion of persons and be the physical image of God in the world... now that was perfect..................................................... .......................................................... I strive to live up to this calling...Life is a journey and I am making all strides to come out the best person I can be... I give myself freely, totally, faithfully, and fruitfully to those around me... I follow my God given intellect not my fleeting feelings... only then do I experience true happiness... now happiness can’t be misunderstood with good feelings... no, true happiness is the internal condition whose opposite is emptiness... not sadness, suffering, pain as many may think... true happiness can co-exist with these... True happiness doesn’t come and go, it is enduring... And this has always lead me in the right direction... It is real, self giving love for life and people... It is hard to live this way, but any other way would not bring true happiness... I believe in God with all my heart... No matter how many times I have turned my back on Him, He has always been waiting with open arms for my return... Since I have realized this truth, I know that the only way for me to achieve true happiness, fulfillment, and become fully human is to follow His commandments no matter how hard it is... that is how I show my gratitude... The greatest commandment of all is Love God with all your heart, mind, and soul (body), and your neighbor as yourself... Trusting in His plan for me, NOT my own... AND everything else just falls into place.I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
