When I was a little child, I was outstandingly pure. I was the little boy who constantly told my grandmother and other family members about their language. I even remember the first time I swore, under provocation of classmates, I cried for 20 minutes because I felt bad. Now that I’m part-sailor, I wonder, shouldContinueContinue reading “Curses & Swear Words”

Childhood Bible Stories: Jonah and the Whale – Running Away from God
Jonah is one of the stories I remember hearing about as a kid and mentally mixing with Pinocchio. All I ever remembered was someone got swallowed by a whale for acting foolish.

Jonah itselfContinueContinue reading “Childhood Bible Stories: Jonah and the Whale – Running Away from God”

Drink More Water
Drink More Water. Besides it being the supremely infectious catchphrase of Chicago’s Mick Jenkins. He takes water to symbolize the truth in all of its forms.

My Personal Resurrection on the Sunday
Today was a weird day. I woke up hurting but happy it was Sunday. I wished Twitter a Happy Resurrection Sunday and was met with some unusual resistance.

How do you start to enjoy the time to yourself? How do you find yourself? Were you ever really lost? The goal is to find something youContinueContinue reading “Enjoy Yourself & Try Something New”
