Safe upon the solid rock the ugly houses stand. Come and see my shining palace built upon the sand!

About Me

I am no one of great importance, but I understand that as an individual I have an impact on this world. I strive to do good things and support good things being done. I enjoy arts and things that make me think. I enjoy people and thoughtful conversation. I also enjoy mindless fun sometimes. I am average. I am happy. MyGen Profile Generator
