About Me

..I greet you with a brother's kiss, then crank the knife another twist.I am a gentle soul, with good intentions toward everyone. I am fairly selfless and kind, and I have great faith in people. Sometimes this faith can lead to disappoinment in the long run, but no matter what, I deal with everything in a calm and balanced way. I am a good interpreter, very sensitive, intuitive, caring, and gentle. Concerned about the world, I am good at predicting people's feelings. A seeker of wisdom, I am a life long learner looking for purpose and meaning. I am a great thinker and communicator, but not necessarily a doer. I write out my feelings better than I speak them.To God Be The Glory As for me and my house we will serve the Lord!

My Interests

I desire most of all to have my walk and talk match, most especially in my walk and talk with my Savior Jesus Christ. I want my life to be lived in sincere worship of Him. I want to do whatever makes eternal impact. I want to really live a life of faith. My other interests are in my family, and those people who are loyal to me and prove themselves worthy to be my friend. I have no room for fair weather friends. I also enjoy learning new songs on my bass guitar. I like to read internet forums. I like to read news websites, and edit pictures. I love to play gigs and so see live music in Indiana, when I am not playing a gig myself that is. I am interested in saying hello should you encounter me somewhere in this world. I am interested in attempting to make all of my wife's dreams come true. My wife is the most important person to me and I can't imagine my life without her.

Books:

I am taking the liberty to change this from books I read to things that I read. I read forums ... I post with the name PastorofMuppets at Wrestleview.com and at the eden bass forum. I also read Talkbass.com daily. I like music magazines. I like going to bookstores and reading the music stuff there, while having a nice beverage. I read lots of news sites. I also read the bible on a daily basis. That is a very important habit to form.

Heroes:

People who do the right thing and treat others with respect. It is becoming more and more of a rare thing, so those people who still act respectful and contribute to society, they are my heroes. I have deep respect for my wife, my parents, Billy Graham, Jackson Senyonga, John Bevere, Ted Kirkpatrick, Dale Thompson, James Jamerson, James Hetfield, Dave Mustaine, Mark Clark.
