About Me

2007, the year that we are all turning the big 3-0, I can honestly say that I am content with my life. I have an amazing house, I'm blessed with an amazing family and group of friends. My life is almost drama free and just when I think it isn't, something happens to someone I know and my life is put back in perspective. I will always strive to learn more, do more, be better at being me and my life, but not at the expense of enjoying the now.

My Interests

People who can teach me things. A man who sees everyone else but is only looking at me.

Music:

Movies:
