About Me
- Sword Bearer
- I am disciple of my Lord and savior Jesus Christ. I am, therefore a redeemed failure and sinner. I am then a husband, a father, a brother, a son, and a friend. I also work a little - my partners wish I worked a little more. I am an underachieving athlete (but at least not over paid as an underachieving athlete). I believed my parents and teachers who said I could be anything I wanted to be, and ended up an accountant anyway. I believe in things that I strive to live up to, and I frequently disappoint myself and those closest to me. When I die I hope to be remembered as a man who loved his wife and children, who put others before himself, who gave generously, encouraged freely, and lived every day as if it were a gift from God.
