Charity, Works, and Motive
PoeticIntensity
Growing up, I'd have to say that I was a bit of a pious punk religiously, but I was so due, in large amount, to my being incredibly naive.
To demonstrate my naive-ness, I really thought that being emotional was pretty much the same as being spiritual. Yes... Believe it. I was naive.
One other bit of heretical doctrine I beli...

Solid Programming

I am by no means a "versatile programmer" in the general sense of the word. I know of many programmers who are much more well versed in various languages and best practices methodology. In fact, I am not even a computer science graduate, and I don't have a masters degree in anything.
*BUT*

Time with Sister
sarahkimjones
I just spent some time with my sister Chloe. It is always fun to be with her. She cracks me up. Jovie, my new little niece, is so cute. She smiles all the time and has the most kissable cheeks. We went to Arby's for lunch and the people working today were very strange, but the food was still good.

Doctrine of Peace
PoeticIntensity
Due to recent events in my life, I've been feeling a little like the waves constantly lapping at the shore - in motion or at unrest. I know the sounds of the ocean usually bring a feeling of peace, but .... not if you're in the water.... :)
Anyway... This feeling of unrest has brought on a bunch of thoughts and ponderings to me as I'...

Concerning world events, I'll be the first to say that I'm a pretty naive guy. I keep up on stuff that's important to me, but not too much more. I realize that this is somewhat of a flaw, so I am trying to involve myself much more with the world.
That said, on the morning of Sept 10, 2001 - if you asked me what the "world trade ...

Nothing really jumped out and grabbed me for this chapter.
I liked how Nephi was seemingly fiercely loved by his people. I wish we had a president today like that. Seems like politics in general now has nothing to do with what is best for the country. It's all about backstabbing, getting rich, and furthering agendas. I wo...

And yet you broke my heart.

Behind my back!
Now I'm sitting here,
I can't think of anyonelse!
But the one thing rings in my head,
Why was I never good enough for you?
How come I'm alone?
I wanted to give you my heart,
But you just can't be true,
Can you?
Now your running around,
