My Someday is Today

A pirate party you say?!

About Me

Why hello to you! Yeah... you found it... my little myspace page... yes, I took a bit of a leave from myspace, but now I'm back. Ummm... so what now?! Okay... here are a few ditties and some quotes and then you just feel free to look around a bit... go ahead... make yourself at home!

In a quick nutshell here's what its all about -- My great desire for this page is to connect with family, friends, and old classmates. But I also have a burden on my heart to try and build up and encourage others in Christ. Some people might get the wrong impression here. I'm not a Holy Roller Warrior type -- We all struggle, we all fall... We all become discouraged and fall off the pace. We all look for inspiration and God's guidance. So I've tried to create a page where people can come to for support, friendship, knowledge and fun. So I'll work towards those ends... Now you can go back to just cruisin' around my page...
"Have patience with all things, but chiefly have patience with yourself. Do not lose courage in considering your own imperfections but instantly set about remedying them - every day begin the task anew." (Francis de Sales)
I'm high energy and a despiser of boredom.
I find solace in the pool, the water is my momentary escape from all else, it gives me something to continually strive for and work hard for -- I live a chlorinated life.
I'm addicted to the outdoors, addicted to being active and believe in supporting those things and those people you believe in (got that?).
I love the mornings, vote for mountains over beach (clooooose vote though), believe ice-cream is a complete meal, and yes... I have random collection of political bobble-heads.
In my former life I played professional water polo in Australia... for some reason I gave it up and now lead a more "normal" life (normal in that I work for the man -- literally).
I believe in living life like a blindfolded sprint through the woods at midnight. You get.."tahoma"We all play it safe... it's time to take some chances... go out on a limb... close your eyes and take jump...
I want to live a life of vision, passion and inspiration. I believe in laughter and if you can't laugh at yourself, then you're short changing yourself.
"For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory." (2 Corinthians 4:17)

"...Set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity." {1 Timothy 4:12}

My Interests

Life is my interest... living it... searching for ways to live it to the fullest... trying to bring a smile to those who surround me and are an integral part of my life. Trying to grow in depth of insight and knowledge.The simple and basic interests?! Water polo (my passion and retreat), open water swimming, hiking, snowshoeing, basketball, relaxing on the couch at home with the wife, surfing, horseback riding, backpacking, working out, biking.
Also, visit my website -- yup, I'm a health guy and in the health business so go and check it out... always feel free to hit me up with questions about your own fitness lifestyle! Check out IcyH20s.com.

I'd like to meet:

In addition to the Ultimate Warrior, Davey Crockett, Mark Twain, Abraham Lincoln and a few other names of note... we'll go with the following:
People who are FIRED UP ABOUT LIFE and enjoy being alive.
People who enjoy laughing and refuse to go through life letting stress and pressure suffucate them.
People who are sincere and truthful in their words and in their belief.
People who believe that we are here for a reason and are destined to live for more than ourselves and selfish desires.
Fun and entertaining people from my first grade class (or wherever).
I'm trying to create a page where believers can come together, share, build one another up and encourage and correct each other in the faith. If there are questions you have, or studies you'd like to see me do... or just want to chat it up, then hit me up and let me know.

Music:

Music is my motivation... my inspiration...

Movies:

Gladiator, Braveheart, Old School, Family Man, So I Married an Axe Murderer, Spanglish, Far and Away, Napoleon Dynamite, Dodgeball, Star Wars, Rearview Mirror, Underworld, Passion of the Christ, yadda yadda yadda...

Evidence for the Resurrection

Remembering 9.11.01

Incredible love, amazing courage

God has created mankind so that we naturally hunger for a relationship with Him. He has built that yearning for Himself into our frame; He has encoded eternal longings in our spiritual DNA structure. ...
