About Me |
|
| To speak of myself, I want to be transparent & real about who I am, my struggles, my hopes, my fears...To be honest this is something I am still working on, but it is definitely a desire I have.I know I live in a world that wants to hold me down & keep me from being everything I could possibly be and that's ok...cause I have the source of strength to help me reach my potential, and a good deal of my close friends have this as well. Don't hesitate to talk to me because I want to be an encouragement to you.This summer I have noticed doors of opportunity open up and have taken advantage of these blessings as they come into my life. I want to get to the point that I seize every opportune moment to minister to anyone who is hurting, lonely, or depressed, and I want to be able to do this without thinking about it or trying to avoid it.I have also learned a very important lesson from a good friend in that as believers we can't be vague about our actions & desires...we need to cut away the fat & get to the point simply because we loose their respect very quickly if we don't...thanks Sarah."Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that all was vanity; but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dream with open eyes, and make it possible." -T. E. Lawrence (Lawrence of Arabia)"I would hurl words into this darkness and wait for an echo, and if an echo sounded, no matter how faintly, I would send other words to tell, to march, to fight, to create a sense of hunger for life that gnaws in us all." -Richard Wright, American Hunger, 1977 | |
