Pay no mind to those who talk behind your back...it simply means you are two steps ahead (Thorin)

About Me

I'm Jared.
I'm way into diversity, be it music or life. If you hate anyone for a stupid reason or discriminate becasue of how someone looks, then you can fuck off! I hate people like that.
I'm a witty person.
I play bass. Currently looking for a band...Anyone want to jam?
I sing, and write a lot of my own material.
Music's my biggest passion. Writing's my other passion.
I love to read.
My friends mean the world to me...even if we don't hang out much aymore.
I am a Christian. My faith means a lot to me. If that bothers you, sorry. I'm not one who shoves it in others' faces.
"No man, for any consideration of time, can wear one face to himself and another to the multitude without finally getting bewildered as to which may be the truth." (Nathaniel Hawthorne)
"We are all searching for some sense of fulfillment to appease our guilty consciences and make ourselves feel better, in the long run. When you boil it down, this is the essence of how we spend most of our time. It is all just basically a search to fill the hole, the void. ... the harder we try to fill the hole, the more destructive we become." (andrew schwab)

My Interests

"The Fallen Angel"

This whole poem is inspired by a late-night conversation with the singer of my former band, Jacob Hearn. We talked for at least two hours about Armageddon...and this is what popped into my head...I do...
