Favorite Quote:
&quot;Truth without love is a killer, but love without truth is a liar. The Bible commands us to have both: It says to speak the truth in love.&quot;--Elliott Nesch<br /> &quot;To love another person is to see the face of God.&quot;--Victor Hugo

Keep me on my toes,
Be amigous and free.
For you I will search high and low
To revel in your luminescence.
Lead me into the night,
To places unknown.
Leave me breathless,
Yet impassioned, without relent.
And stay within my grasp,
But never yeild to such incarceration.
