About Me

God first.I'm a Father and husband. I'm a vegan. I like to work out, and have an expansive, rich vocabulary. I sometimes struggle with trying to remember that everyone is made in God's image, even bad drivers and bothersome co-workers, but I am compelled to love them anyway. Jesus didn't spend alot of time talking about abortion or stem cell research, but he did put alot of red ink down about loving people where they are. Ghandi said "be the change you want to see in the world'. An old African proverb says "when you pray, move your feet".I'm a budding emcee, and one day I will feel confident enough to share it. It stemmed from my love of language, of literature and poetry. I have a tier of books on my bookshelf that I've read halfway, and then started another book because I didn't take the first book to work with me or something like that. It's a big bookshelf.I like dictionaries and encyclopedias.I have a webcomic that I have not updated since September. I have alot of projects in my mind, but I will likely never get to most of them. I like dictionaries and encyclopedias. I like to think that most people that know me know me feel that I genuinely care for them. I'm never afraid of being vulnerable. I love wikipedia and Madonna.visit my webcomic at http://allergic2umbrellas.blogspot.com/. It's updated daily.
