About Me


God, I don’t have great faith, but I can be faithful. My belief in you may be seasonal, but my faithfulness will not. I will follow in the way of Christ. I will act as though my life and the lives of others matter. I will love. I have no greater gift to offer than my life. Take it.
The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children.
TWLOHA on NBC Nightly News
A compelling or constraining influence, such as a moral force on the mind or world: pressure. To be undecided or skeptical, to tend to disbelieve and distrust, to regard as unlikely, that’s doubt. The condition of being insufficient or falling short, decline in strength or effectiveness: failure. The instinct to run, to back away, or give up, to need, want, reach, steal, the feeling to always want more, and to take more, the loss of breath at the sight of a car accident, to drive by, never being able to feel satisfied, and to reject anyone who tries, and this is my life.
"We break and don't fix easy. We break in different ways, at different times, for different reasons. We lose things. We get stuck in moments. We are slow to forgive, slow to change, slow to ask for help. We are only asked to love, to offer hope to the many hopeless. We don't get to choose all the endings, but we are asked to play the rescuers. We won't solve all mysteries and our hearts will certainly break in such a vulnerable life, but it is the best way. We were made to be lovers, bold in broken places, pouring ourselves out again and again until we're called home."
One day I'm going to go here, because it's pretty incredible

My Interests

I'd like to meet:



"WE ARE BORN INTO THE WORLD, & THERE IS SOMETHING WITHIN US WHICH, FROM THE INSTANT THAT WE LIVE, MORE & MORE THIRSTS AFTER ITS LIKENESS, A MINIATURE AS IT WERE OF OUR ENTIRE SELF, YET DEPRIVED OF ALL THAT WE CONDEMN OR DESPISE, THE IDEAL PROTOTYPE OF EVERYTHING EXCELLENT & LOVELY THAT WE ARE CAPABLE OF CONCEIVING AS BELONGING TO THE NATURE OF MAN, A MIRROR WHOSE SURFACE REFLECTS ONLY THE FORMS OF PURITY & BRIGHTNESS...A SOUL WITHIN OUR OWN SOUL".
WHERE ARE YOU NOW?
