About Me

→The name is †ara← I have finally graduated highschool. This Fall I will be a freshman teaching fellow at UNC-Asheville. You've probably guessed it, Art is my major. I live out of a ~*SketchBook*~ I have learned to be comfortable without conforming - To be in the world but not of it - or just to BE. My greatest desire is for my cause to be stronger than my name. My cause → a real desire to know God. The effect → His love has ruined me, for all that I am. So whether I'm trying to get my act together, or giving it away, That's the art of becoming. ... CHRIST is not a fashion ... ... fleeting → a w a y →AIM = xXSplitTheSkyXx
