Angel Raphael

A heart is not judged by how much you love, but by how much you are loved by others.

About Me

The one thing that I have learned in my 28 years of life is that people are human and will make mistakes, hurt others, lie and deceive. The important thing is to learn from all of those lessons to better your own life. Family is important when your definition of "family" has been tried. My definition of family has come to mean any and all that love another unconditionally. Those that love me unconditionally are my family. Live in Love.
Rafael. You're most like the ArchAngel of Healing.
You want people to shape up, and you nag. But
you mean well, and you're well loved despite
it. Or because of it. You bring the donuts
even as you tell people to eat more veggies.

Which ArchAngel are you most like?

My Interests

Lately I've gotten into a little photography, can you tell?... I'll add more later as I think of it.

I'd like to meet:

I really like meeting anyone that is interesting. I especially like people that are different from me so that we can share things with eachother. I can teach and I can learn. It's a win-win situation. Anyways, new friends are always welcome, no matter where you live. In my cross-country travels, I found that it's always good to have friends all over the place.Above anything else, BE REAL. I HATE FAKE PEOPLE! And just to let you know, I meant to type all of that in caps.

Television:

I try not to watch too much, but I end up watching a lot: Will & Grace, Gilmore Girls, The Simple Life, My name is Earl and pretty much anything else that can make me laugh. And I really love to watch The Amazing Race!

Books:

I'm currently reading 100 Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez. I previously tried to read it in Spanish, but that was harder than I thought it would be so I gave up and switched back to English.

Heroes:

"I think it pisses God off when you walk by the color purple, in a field, and don’t notice it."
