Accomplishing Aspirations

Askfriend wonders, "Do you feel fulfilled in life? Did you have any aspirations growing up? Have you accomplished those?"

Abstractifying the Bible

I've enrolled in a writing class called Writing Close to the Earth. We just received our first reading materials recently, and the first class activity based on them is a truly fun one.

An Epic Shiner

I get injured in the stupidest ways.

Beware The Darkness

Most of the time my dreams are silly. If you took a video game and crossed it with an action movie, that would be a good basis for my standard dream. Last night I had one that gave me reason to think it was a bit more than the standard brainchurn.

Taking A Stand

I don't take a stand. I don't make waves. Unless I gauge that I'm talking to someone who likely shares my beliefs, I don't bring mine up. I bite my tongue. I grit my teeth.

Soul Spa

Punk Rock Heroes

I grew up on a mix of Kenny Loggins, the Beatles, Manhattan Transfer, and lesser-known Christian artists like Rich Mullins, Keith Green, and Michael Kelley Blanchard. Add in a healthy dose of KUSC Los Angeles classical music station, and that was approximately the field of my early listening.

But I Have Something To Say

Ever tried to focus on anything while a howler monkey screams full tilt directly into your ear?

0.1 - Remara

Once, there was nothing.

The Can't List
