About Me

My happiness comes not from any other person, but from a great satisfaction for the person I am, the God that I love, and the goals that I conquer daily.You may judge who I am by what I do, and where I go. I am not perfect, I have my flaws, but I am so delightfully adorable.Whether intentionally or not, I live my life in a way that I think would translate best on screen. I've been known to say things that i know are stupid so that I will have a better story to tell later. Part of the reason I travel and chase thrills is that I feel any leading man should have these characteristics.There is a fine and distinct line that seperates the the adrenaline fiend from the slightly suicidal. I do my best not to cross that line, but like most drugs, adrenaline has quite the tolerance associated with it, so each thrill must outweigh the previous one. While I am terrified of heights, I find myself regularly jumping out or off of very tall things, only so that I may feel more alive.

And the record begins with a song of redemption

I would like to open with the following quote, as I feel that it in no way encapsulates my current life state:"The greatest movies mirror real life. They imitate the best and worst of humanity; they b...
