About Me

Not much to say about me, I like video games, going to Fallen Eyes music venue, hanging out with friends, listening to music, socializing at school, admiring the complexities and simplicities of the human race....so on.
That was 2001.
This is 2007.
I've learned allot since then, it seems like so little until I actually go back and think about it. I could think back learning new things this week and there would even be allot. All because along the way I've been subject to some level of torture and pain. Pain and like minded emotions are what make us and build us. If there's one thing I've learned, and recently discovered it is that in times of great strife, then who we are is formed. A French philosopher, when looking back on his, in which he hadn't ever really amounted to anything, never had a real romance, and spend his whole life working on a novel that barely anyone reads, noticed that in all the bad years through all the crap, that is when who he was was formed and all the good years full of fun were worthless because he didn't gain anything. It's like picking a cheese burger instead of three more dollars for collage, or a car, or what have you. Sure, the burger may taste great, but the other stuff is probably more worth your money, your dedication and work, and attention.If there is one other thing I've learned recently is that, because am a free man, free of all authority, I am a slave to those around me. I am their servant, a servant to the world's people because is to them that I wish to speak, to them that I wish to know, to experience joy and to experience sadness. I look back and regret that their are few moments where I have been able to share sadness with someone on a deep level, because that is when people bond most. I may seem odd in what I think, in what I do or even wear but It's a backwards kingdom, and oh, am I learning how backwards it is, and I've never been happier. No where else have I felt so at home, no where else have I felt so safe and no where else have I been able to have such hardship with a helping hand and prayer. I've been thought of knowing more or something higher than others my age, and if I even do I'm sure it's a burden as well as a blessing, but progress is one of my best friends and if that burden, as burdens often do bring me more into progress then that is my friend.
I am a child of progress, I am a child of inward searching, I am a child, I am a child of God.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Come check out this literary community I'm in! border="0" alt="Jon Owen">
People who aren't fake and aren't afraid to admit it. Musicians that play for God AND represent Him. Who realize that just because you are part of the scene you are in does not mean you have to drink, smoke, do drugs, have sex, and cuss like the rest of them. I have many people in many bands I have met that have let me down on this. The rock and roll community seems to pick good Christians up and spit them out as atheists. Someday I will stand in that industry as a building built upon the Rock that is a foundation that will not falter and I will take back music for God to a time when it was praise to His ears back from satan who tried to take it with him when he fell from heaven. Until then I want to meet people that represent that.

Also, Strong Christian people, boy and girl alike. Real ones that know the Fruits of the Spirit and live them out. Ones that stand for God and bare fruit for his cause, giving good fruit as a branch grafted onto Him who is the Vine. Christians that are followers of Christ first and the "Christian" cliche of America never. Christians that realize that there is mystery in Faith and that it is supernatural as well.
Also, all who are hungry, all who are weak and thirst: come and I will tell you of Jesus Christ, the Well of Life that gives healing, quenching water that will quench the thirst of your soul forever and forever more over and over. He came and by the stripes He took on His back we have been healed of all our pain and sorrow, sadness and misery. He has taken people last for years to cutting, alcohol, depression, smoking, and all manner of sadness and healed them, making them new people that know true love.

Also, In a girl:
I will settle for no less that what I have been promised from God. A girl that is strong in Him sincerely, and trust me, I will be able to tell all the fakers out. For me, someone who doesn't only have a desire to know God, but one who does and lives Him out in their every day life. I won't be like many kids I know who find a person as "Christian" and say it's alright to date them. Unless they bare fruit in what they do then I'm not looking to them as a girlfriend. I may be waiting some time but I know I will find her, I may have already but only God knows. In the mean time I can be happy that I have hope given to me through people like my sister who is always after God's own Heart. She gives me hope that someday I will find someone that is strong in Christ and bares fruit. I also find hope through her husband Shane for he shows me that strong women of Christ know well how to chose who to be with and will settle for no less than that of a man like him.AIM= LinkQuestMaster LJ= Faith_Found01
