About Me

When you are sorrowful
look again in your heart,
and you shall see that
in truth
you are weeping
for that which has been your
delight.
~ Kahlil Gibran
If you begin to live life
looking for the God
that is all around you,
every moment
becomes a prayer.
- Frank Bianco
Have courage for the great sorrows of life
and for the small ones;
and when you have laboriously accomplished your daily task,
go to sleep in peace.
God is awake.
- Unknown
People travel to wonder
at the height of the mountains,
at the huge waves of the seas,
at the long course of the rivers,
at the vast compass of the ocean,
at the circular motion of the stars,
and yet they pass by themselves without wondering.
- St. Augustine
We shall not cease from exploration
and the end of all our exploring
will be to arrive where we started
and know the place for the first time.
- T.S. Eliot
If the stars should appear
one night in a thousand years,
how would men believe and adore;
and preserve for many generations
the remembrance of the city of God
which had been shown!
But every night come out these envoys of beauty,
and light the universe with their admonishing smile.
~Ralph Waldo Emerson
You Should Be A Poet
You craft words well, in creative and unexpected ways.
And you have a great talent for evoking beautiful imagery...
Or describing the most intense heartbreak ever.
You're already naturally a poet, even if you've never written a poem. What Type of Writer Should You Be?
You Are a Dreaming Soul
Your vivid emotions and imagination takes you away from this world
So much so that you tend to live in your head most of the time
You have great dreams and ambitions that could be the envy of all...
But for you, following through with your dreams is a bit difficult
You are charming, endearing, and people tend to love you.
Forgiving and tolerant, you see the world through rose colored glasses.
Underneath it all, you have a ton of passion that you hide from others.
Always hopeful, you tend to expect positive outcomes in your life.
Souls you are most compatible with: Newborn Soul, Prophet Soul, and Traveler Soul What Kind of Soul Are You?

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

A hundred years from today
Far away from where we lived
And where we used to play.
We will know each others' eyes
And wonder where we met
Your laugh will sound familiar
Your heart, I won't forget.

We will meet, I'm sure of this,
But let's not wait til then...
Let's take a walk beneath the stars
And share this world again.
- Ron Atchison

Wherever you are,
it is your friends
that make your world.
William James (1842-1910)

There is no such thing as a self-made man.
We are made up of thousands of others.
Everyone who has ever done a kind deed for us,
or spoken one word of encouragement to us,
has entered into the makeup of our character and our thoughts.
- George Matthew Adams

Don't be dismayed at goodbyes.
A farewell is necessary before you can meet again.
And meeting again,
after moments or lifetimes
is certain for those who are friends.
- Richard Bach

I've learned that people will forget what you said,
people will forget what you did,
but people will never forget
how you made them feel.
- Maya Angelou

I am strong. Stronger than I think. So are you. God gives us the strength right when we need it. Sometimes it feels like a long wait. That is enough for today.
