| Bio: | I'm that one kid that made you chuckle in your math class that one time, probably because I made fun of the teacher, or the teacher made fun of me. Then you run into me at a concert, movie, coffee shop, and you find me wondering, "What exactly am I doing in this cosmopolitan hub? This place is disgusting." And then I disappear for a week...a month...a year. Then the cycle repeats itself. I'm a ghost to most people, at least that's how they look at me when they see me at the aforementioned hub. 'Is this kid still alive?!' All this to say, I'm good at keeping acquaintances acquaintances, but I'm not always good at knowing I'm doing it. I've come to terms with both of those things, though. I really do love people. I've just admitted to myself I don't have time to show that love to more than a few. Women are put in Art Galleries. Men are put in Zoos. If you're a girl, I don't make you an accessory. If you're a guy, I don't try and tame you. I don't down play the power or danger of either, and would like to point out that we're all more alike than we are different. But we are different, mind you. So that's a fragment of me in a very ambiguous and cosmic (not to mention soul-crushingly pretentious) frame of mind. More down to earth, I'm six two and wiry. My hair is short now, but most people would best recognize me were it long. I'm less solemn and angry as this bio makes me sound. My writing style is sapped from the things I read, the majority of which are solemn and angry. So I apologize. I'm active in my church. I love my family and am very thankful for them, despite our flaws. I roll with a ridiculous group of guys that I love to death. I have an amazing and beautiful girlfriend who's presence in my life is one of the greatest gifts I've ever been given. I have no idea what I want to do with my life. I want a wife and kids. It doesn't matter where God takes me, but it's important to me that I go there with others. I'm arrogant, opinionated, and somewhat hot-tempered; at least I know it, right? I've been told that I'm an "intense" person. I long debated whether this was a good or bad thing, but experience has taught me that such an ambiguous trait seldom yields straightforward impressions. I don't have very good self-awareness, but I'm working on it. My impression is that people often don't know what to make of me, but feel that they should make something of me, which is flattering since most people in this world seem to go unnoticed. The characteristics I strive for include loyalty, honesty, discipline, honor, bravery, compassion, gentleness, kindness, self control, and several others. I haven't the humility to say that I'm a complete abortion of all of these things, but I haven't the stupidity to say that I'm anywhere near to acquiring them fully or making use of them, for that matter. The meaning of life? To figure out the meaning of life. There are three questions we must ask: Is there a God? Is there a Soul? Are there morals? There are answers to these questions, though one could debate whether or not humans are capable of knowing them. But the answers, if found, change everything. They completely alter how we should live and what we should live for. |
