About Me
Who am I?
I am the Alpha, and I am the Omega,
I am the sky above, and I am the ground below,
I am the morning rain, and I am the evening thunder,
I am pain, and I am joy,
I am you, and I am me,
I am everything, and I am nothing at all.
Love is like a beam of light, shining in the darkness, illuminating those whom we love. Most people choose to see themselves as a flashlight, shining their love in one direction and then another, and at times turning their light off altogether. A few choose to see themselves as the sun, sending out love in all directions, at all times, never asking who, or why, or asking anything in return.
My goal in life is simple: to become a man of infinite love and infinite patience.

"We who lived in concentration camps can remember the men who walked through the huts comforting others, giving away their last piece of bread.

Frankl
"But I say unto you, love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them that despitefully use you and persecute you," - Matthew 5:44

This is to have succeeded." - Ralph Waldo Emerson
"We need to ask ourselves not what do we expect from life, but rather, what does life expect from us". - Viktor E. Frankl
"Do not be afraid of the struggle."
