ARMY

I joined the US Army Reserves on Tuesday April 30th.
For the next 6yrs this will be apart of my life. With this I feel like I will be accomplishing a lifetime goal I never knew I had. Whats life if your not risking it that's my motto, but im a depressed adrenaline junkie. I realized lately that I have habit of inappropriately joking about myself. If I were standing on a stage making people laugh about how im a depressed skinny guy it would totally be appropriate, funny how that works. Thats a short update....

Everyone has seen quotes of famous people that many people say. So I thought it would be cool to try come up with my own. So this is


'Quotes for when I die'


"Everyone is born, then spend the rest of their lives healing from the shock of
reality"


"People kill each other, think about that for awhile."


"Sometimes I think im cool, then I realize im just hangin with cool people."


"Finding something to live for is less important than finding something to die for."


"In the extreme, truth is found."


"I can't make dirt"


"90% of what i think is full of crap, that's why i only verbalize ten percent."



my friend howard has some good quotes here is a sampler



"im all about shake and bake" (not an exact quote)



"everyone can be great, because everyone can serve" MLK jr - ill keep working at it

update

hey i haven't posted in a long time so i thought i would.. post
it has been an interesting road lately that I think im getting a clearer picture of. I started to lose things over the last 3-4 months that has been different from the previous months/years.
My video camera was stolen/lost, i no longer new what i was going to be doing when i was not going on the 2yr mission, my hard drive crashed with alot of my pictures,music,video and i lost my picture camera. Many things close to my soul.
I think it has been God teaching me to follow him step by step and not rely on things,relationships,or plans
some scripture that has come with that is about Moses, when Gods asks him what he has in hand and then asks him to throw it down and it turns into a snake. Also Jesus said he is the Vine and we are the branches. Im often tempted to look like im following God to others, an appearance. Very cool to know God is there in control.




take break, read the bible - its like a really long movie

how i spent my new years eve

tanacious

persistent in maintaining, adhering to, or seeking something valued or desired
describes rugby, players move small amounts to score points
it looks like it would be fun to play, your never running that fast so your not going to get hurt as much compared to football.
speaking of tenacity, the man who introduced me this sport. rugby is in his vains, evident in his tenacity for the Lord and his stature. please to know him

they do this cool jumping thing

...whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat.
