learn more about Islam
searching for the truth 15 months ago

I grew up in a Christian household, as many white Americans have. But the reality of the situation is that the Muslim faith seems more real to me. I don’t really know how to describe it and I feel very conflicted over what I have always been told is true and by what I actually believe is true. I honestly don’t think that people should believe whatever they were told was true growing up. You should search for the truth yourself. Pretty much I’m just struggling with the situation. I would love to talk to someone who may have gone through a similar sort of situation.



work because I like to, not because I have to
life is unexpected 2 years ago

When I was a kid there was no way that I would have thought this is what I would want to do with my life. I’m a full time junior high math teacher and I work weekends and some evenings at a bike/ski shop. I really can’t imagine anything that could be better than this. I love have unexpectedly life turns out!



Do the A-Z author challenge (read all 9 entries…)
reading rut 2 years ago

So I’ve been in a reading rut over the last month or so but I have managed to finish a couple of books.

Catch-22 by Joseph Heller (I really didn’t like it all that much)
It’s All Downhill From Here by Andrew Schwab
Allen & Mike’s Really Cool Backpackin’ Book by Allen O’Bannon (Does it count if it has cartoon pictures?)
Searching For God Knows What by Donald Miller
Ink by Hal Duncan
