About Me

I try to be as much like Jesus as possible. But, just like any other human being I am a champion and I am a complete failure at life. I am a servant, or at least I try to be. I have a thousand imperfections, and not one single thing I am perfect at. But that is where the beauty of life and humanity takes hold. In it's own imperfections. I am human just like you. We both bleed red blood. We are comrades, enemies, sinners, and saints. We are all things embodied in the One Great Imagination. We are His creation. I have freedom in the choices I make, and every one says something about me. I am ambitious, complex, and hearty. I am blessed, and I am ungrateful.
