Introduction I love to learn about Jesus, although the more I learn, the more I realize I don't know and for someone who lusts for knowledge, that is terrifying. I am a Biblical Studies major at the Baptist College of Florida although I claim no religious affiliation. I am an addict of many things, but the things to which I am not, I enjoy much more! I am a pipe smoker (tobacco, not illegal drugs.) I am a ragtag musician and artist. I am engaged to someone who is much better at life than I am (she's trying to teach me;) I like to laugh at myself when people are looking, and at others when no one is looking. I procrastinate. I drink ALOT of coffee. I have a lot more questions than answers.
Interests Relationships (The Creator- friends- people that don't like me- people that I randomly meet- Helping connect the first with the rest), making music, world religions, art, reading

Unlike a dog, how can a turtle ever be naked?

How do we love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us... and drop bombs on them at the same time? Why is there brail at a drive up atm?
