I'm in Troy, IL but work in St. Louis, MO. Go Cards!

I have a freakish imagination. I've been writing since I was around 16 or 17 and can create entire worlds and characters with unique personality quirks. I don't really know how I do it but recently I've been becoming more and more convinced that it has a purpose beyond what I use it for...

Before and during my freshman year of highschool I did missionary work in Taiwan and attended a Christian Academy. I think I actually learned more than I could have ever taught...especially about my relationship with God. It was probably the most conflicted time in my life. I was happy...

Troy, IL here. Close enough to St. Louis to be a Cards fan!

Great googly moogly! Can I bum about a million of those? I just want to hold them for a second.

Come on...you've got to have a sense of humor somewhere in there! Edit: Also, my living avatar has the same problem with shoes as I do in real life. Stupid square feet.

Any advice I give is completely useless...since love is the only area of my life where I'm completely clueless. This is a great thread, though. I will say that guys change with age. Not much...but we do shift in our opinions and attitudes. A 20 year old will be very energetic and in a hurry...

I expect the same from atheists as they expect from me. Keep quiet and out of my business. I can not help it if they refuse to remove their blindfolds and see. Statistically speaking I'll live longer than them anyway!

With as often as my butt gets pulled out of the fire...I KNOW Jesus is keeping me safe. I've heard and felt God since I was very young. I was never raised as a Christian or taught about God...I just knew. I feel afraid a LOT...but all I have to do is ask and the fear goes away (or at least...

I love 80's music. I admit to being into 90's music a LOT. The 90's were my teenage and highschool years. The 80's were the years that built my foundation. I can only hope I am able to pass on the experiences I have to my children.

Could be worse I guess! I really enjoyed how I grew up. I was able to experience some really wonderful history. I also knew my grandfather, a member of the greatest generation who also happened to be a WWII hero (he was a medic and was proud that through ALL of the European campaign he did...

I never thought about this. I definitely want to marry and have kids with someone who doesn't have a genetic abnormality that will be passed onto our kids. I carry the potential for alcoholism (dad and sister are/were alcoholics) even though I do not drink. I have awesome teeth, though...

June 5, 1978. There, that will make some of you feel better! I just wanted to post in here while I still could...otherwise soon it's off to the 30s. :eek:

Bella sent me! I admit it...I'm a newb (not to Christianity, though!).

This is a nice place. I'm trying to find a place to start posting...but I don't know what to say! Ha! I tend to not have a lot in common with other people.

Thank you all for the warm welcome. It's very nice to know I'm not alone. I could survive with my beliefs intact alone if I had to...but I do take a great amount of comfort in knowing others like myself.

I'm going to try to not make this an incredibly long message. I have never been "raised" as a Christian. I remember the day when I first started to believe, though. I was 10 years old and sitting on the front porch of my grandparents' house. It was late spring/early summer and everything was...
