About Me

I'm a mystery to most, including myself at times...and I kind of like that. It takes some doing to get in and figure me out...and I definately like that. If you want to know more...you'll have to ask.

My Interests

Writing, art, football, friends, loving, adventuring, dreaming...you get the picture.

I'd like to meet:

Your mom.

Music:

Eclectic. Stuff I can chill to, sing to, dance to, dream to, feel to, be to...I think that about covers it.Still, it must be stated that Sufjan Stevens is favorite.

Movies:

Wicker Park, Pride and Prejudice, Braveheart, What About Bob...old stuff, new stuff, funny stuff, blue stuff. I'm bad at picking favorites...I like lots. "I'm your Huckleberry".

Television:

Friends and That 70's Show. Basically...I don't have much time for TV so I try not to get into lots of shows as I'm easily sucked in.

Books:

I keep buying more books that I don't have time to read. But currently in process: Gilead and For the Time Being (both 2nd time reads) and The Future of Ice.There are always tons of books I want to read, but it has recently come to my attention how many absolutely brilliant writers there are that no one knows about and conversely how many so-so writers there are that everyone seems to know about. It's disheartening, really.

Heroes:

"Far better is to dare mighty things, to gain mighty triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither gain much nor suffer much because they live in grey twilight that knows not victory or defeat." ~Theodore Roosevelt" Such people are currently my heroes.

A 1 John 4 kind of Love

So...I was thinking today on Love...1 John has a lot to say:  "love comes from God...everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God..."  If we love one another, we see him and his lov...

Mullings on CS Lewis The Weight of Glory

The picture of a child sets the stage.  "But whoever comes to me must come as one of these little ones", the Rabbi says.  What is it about a child?  Some will take you through the histo...

Heart tears

A few years ago I had a series of dreams in which I was given a glimpse into some horrible experiences that teenagers today may face.  One was about a school shooting. A couple days ago in the sh...
