I am very reserved, basically. I love poetry and food. They're always awesome. I play football, baseball and volleyball. Still learning tennis. I'm addicted to knowledge (literally). I have one dog, Night, and then my cat, Momo, and I love them to death. My whole life I have used it to help others learn about bible principles. Even those that aren't christian have found a christian lifestyle beneficial so I continue to help people learn about God. Besides this, I allow poetry to be my mouth piece in this world. I'm an all around good guy and as I get to know people, they get to know me.
