About Me

CURRENT MISSION

HOST ANYONE WE DEEM TRUST WORTHY, ANY TIME, ANY SEASON. AND BE HOSTED

ABOUT ME

I am a contradiction on many levels. I can talk for hours, but when prompted to describe myself I can't think of anything to say. I hate to jump on bandwagons, but here I am typing out a social-network page. I love to laugh (yeah, even at myself) more than anything. Everyone says it, but I mean it. I can never resist a good pun. You never know what will come out of my mouth next. I'm the guy that when an old lady trips and falls, I laugh first and then run over and be the first to help her up.. and then maybe laugh one more time. I’ve often been told that I talk too much, but I’d rather talk a lot than not enough. People that take themselves too seriously kind of annoy me. However, I am perfectly capable of being serious when needed. I'm pretty adventurous ---- will do “anything” twice; Like to challenge myself and to do things that are completely unexpected just to shock other people. I’m originally from a small town in Michigan. I moved to Sunny San Diego in 2005. I lived there for 4 years. I didn’t know what to expect, so I guess it met my expectations. It’s quite different than the Midwest, but I was ready for a change. I loved the fact that there were real, live palm trees right outside my house! Who’d a thought??? I CURRENTLY RESIDE IN PHOENIX, ARIZONA. I am the second oldest out of a pretty GINORMOUS family… four brothers and five sisters! I love them all

PHILOSOPHY

I BELIEVE GOD PUT US ON THIS EARTH, AND IT IS UP TO US TO FIND OUR DESTINY ON IT. I DO NOT BELIEVE EVERYONE WAS PUT ON THIS EARTH TO HELP SOMEONE ELSE, BUT I KNOW I WAS. I HAVE DONE BAD THINGS IN MY LIFE AND I HAVE DONE GOOD THINGS- I DO NOT BELIEVE IN REGRET- I BELIEVE IN LEARNING FROM ALL THE GOOD AND ALL THE BAD YOU DO- THERE IS NOT A DAY IN YOUR LIFE WHERE YOU WILL NOT LEARN SOMETHING NEW. IT DOESN'T MATTER IF IT IS FROM SOMEONE OLDER, YOUNGER, SAME SEX, OPPOSITE SEX, AN ANIMAL, AND ECT. ECT.
