Posted In Life Stuff

Yes, we chat a lot over on twitter and facebook about the small stuff, but I probably don’t REALLY know you. But, I would love to know more about you. So, what is something you want me and the rest of (re)made to know? It could be that you’re afraid of heights, it could be that you have six toes on one foot, it could be that you want to be an actor one day, but you’re in a job nowhere even close to that. It can be anything. Go.

  • Things I want to do sometime in my life :
    -Climb alot of mountains (again) -climbed 2 smaller ones on east coast in my teens
    -Go whitewater rafting(again) - went I was 14
    -Go roadtriping throughout the states
    -Go skydiving/bungee jumping
    -Go backpacking throughout Europe
    -Experience a photo scavenger hunt with a bunch of friends
    -Have a game night with a bunch of friends
    -See an amazing musician unplugged(acoustic)
    - Renovate a house

    I wanted to be an architect for a long time, I write and have an anonymous blog because of the work we do. I want to sing back up to a worship pastor. I wish I could see myself the way God sees me.
  • awesome stuff. praying that u c yourself that way
  • I started my blog the day after christmas 2009 in order to cope with a failed marriage proposal. Its funny how God takes crap and propels us with it! I'm over it now and so glad that it happened... My eyes are now open :)
  • wow. thanks for sharing your tough time and how God brought you through it!
  • I hate cantaloupes. I love gulab jamuns, if you have never had one go to your nearest indian restaurant and order one NOW. They will become your favorite desert I SWEAR.

    Drunks scare me. Not being able to control yourself is never a good thing imo. Ditto for drug users.

    I home school all three of my kids- fun, scary, and a huge responsibility.

    I think I am addicted to books. Seriously. I am trying to cut back on how much I read so I can get some REAL stuff done.


    My recent post My sudden Interest in Steampunk!
  • haha. never had a gulab jamuns before so I guess I gotta have one now. I home schooled for a while in high school and loved it.
  • I'm married to an amazing girl named Julie, who grew up approximately 80 miles from me in Alabama, but we met and married 700 miles away in Oklahoma. Probably wouldn't have met otherwise.____I also listened to death metal to fall asleep when I was a teenager.
  • haha. awesome
  • Ive broken all my toes at least once
  • I'm literally on the other side of the planet from you yet we share the same faith and we're both musicians. I'm inspired by you posts.
  • ha. well thanks man
  • @Anna_k3
    I am hearing impaired. Most people don't know this about me, I hide it very well. I have been struggling with this for about 6 years, but just recently I've come to deal with it and accept it as who I am....with the help of my Lord of course. I still struggle and still hide it, but I am leaning on God to help me through.
  • wow. will def keep u in my prayers
  • A few thoughts:

    -I love carrot juice and barefoot jogging.
    -My father is a pastor, but I'm a Christian anyway.
    -I feel slightly sick right now.

    That's all (for now), folks!

  • :) barefoot jogging?
  • I sleep with both ears covered, I hate sour cream and I am left handed... how's that for top secret data? And I love the Lord Jesus Christ!
  • wow. thats some personal stuff:) Oh, and I love that last 1
  • :) I agree, I like your blog - you do always make us think...
  • By the way Adam,
    I love your posts and the way you make us THINK.
    Thank you.
    My recent post To Feel Alive I Need...
  • no prob. thank you. I made that the point of this blog. I love the feedback from the readers. love it, love it, love it
  • I LOVE to sing, but can only hit about 5 true notes unless singing next to another (very strong) alto. My heart sings, but alas, my voice has never been able to do much. Happiest when singing alone in my car on long Montana drives.
    I too, HATE heights.
    My recent post To Feel Alive I Need...
  • haha. nice. those driving songs we sing when nobody is looking are the best
  • i write my own music and sing. i have a demo...im recording my album now :) i really love music and want to spread love and peace (ya i know im corny) __www.youtube.com.TheAlexxMarie
  • haha. cool
  • My eyes change color depending on what I'm wearing. Also, in 2002 I lost 110lbs. My story is actually on my http://bit.ly/tdwtloss in case you're interested in more (no, it's not spam)
    My recent post My Birthday Wish List
  • Congratulations on the amazing year 2002 you experienced! Good for you.
    My recent post To Feel Alive I Need...
  • Thanks! I appreciate it!
    My recent post My Birthday Wish List
  • wow, that is amazing
  • Let's see, since you mentioned it, I will not get on a tall ladder, heights and non sturdy things don't go together to me. That is probably why God made me 5'7", less distance to fall! :) If I feel safe I am good, you know like rollercoasters, airplanes, tall buildings (from the inside) Not sure if that makes sense to anyone.

    Feel called to ministry, keeping my eyes and heart open to God to see where and when it will happen. It would be in the area of technical ministry/media/analysis.

    Since it is the season, I love Peeps, how can you go wrong with marshmallow and sugar!
    My recent post Sound check or worship
  • haha.oh and i'll be praying for u through your journey man
  • I eat chocolate everyday! I love photography and I'm now running and really enjoying it!
  • nice. I need to start running for real. what kind of chocolate?
  • All kinds of chocolate... lately (b/c of Easter) it is Cadbury Creme Eggs. :)
    My recent post Picture of the week
  • I still use Internet Explorer.

    I know...I know.
    My recent post WWYD - What Would You Do?
  • haha. I was going to say something but you know
  • I am moving to Germany in about 50 days for full-time missions work. And I want a successful blog. That's about it.
    My recent post Mosaic Mercy Blogroll
  • oh wow. well, I want you to have a successful trip to Germany and a blog man. i know you will have great content from that kind of work and it will touch many folks. i am believing that with you
  • I do have a thing for marshmallows (see above for comment on Alece's comment).

    I have a hard time going out and doing things with girlfriends cause I'm not with my hubby and if I were to choose I'd much rather be with him.

    Every morning at work I eat oatmeal with a bright pink plastic spoon I saved from a frozen yogurt place. I'd rather have the lime green one but I haven't gotten one yet.

    My recent post Getting Rid of The Desire of Me
  • haha. I like that last 1. Don't feel bad, I'd rather be with my wife than hang out with friends:)
  • I have tried so hard to be beautiful from the outside. I've cried, secretly hoped, wore makeup and tried endless ways to appear beautiful. This week, after years, God revealed to me something beyond beautiful. Besides the concept of already being beautiful to Him, He revealed to me that I will only find true beauty from Him. A concept so simple of understanding yet so complicated when blinding by the exterior complexity.

    I guess this is something I needed to know and affirm for myself too.
    My recent post My Manic Monday
  • You are beautiful. Especially to God. Check out this blog post by blogger Sarah Markley. She is tackling the same thing. http://www.sarahmarkley.com/2010/03/we-are-full-o...
    My recent post Getting Rid of The Desire of Me
  • Thank you Prudence! I will take a look at that blog. God bless you!

    My recent post My Manic Monday
  • wow. yes you are. this is what I love. I come not even expecting stuff like that but you people are so open and I appreciate that so much. Maybe some healing taking place here

    My recent post My Manic Monday
  • I am really good at compartmentalizing parts of my life. Too good, in fact. Trying to integrate them and be the whole person I was meant to be. This will, naturally, mean that some of the boxes get totally unpacked, and others get thrown straight into the fire.

    Too obtuse and philosophical? Just where I am at, and you did say "anything". :-D
  • hmm...good way to put that
  • I am very personable. Ppl like interacting with me so very much. They find me very funny and intelligent and think very, very highly of me, yet I am never comfortable being held in such high esteem. I was treated poorly by everyone when i was a kid and I think I became comfortable being overlooked and ignored, even though I am very socially savvy as an adult.
  • well at least you know that
  • I can't let go of the love i have for a man that doens't want me,
    on a good note, I am a great singer, most people don't know that.
    My recent post Leading Lady
  • that makes me sad
  • cereal is my favorite midnight snack.

    i hate being barefoot.

    i'm becoming an extroverted introvert.
    My recent post do something
  • I hate being barefoot as well!
  • haha
  • What cereal is that friend?
    I'm partial to Lucky Charms...I have a thing for marshmallows.
    My recent post Getting Rid of The Desire of Me
  • Um...when I was younger I wanted to be a worship singer. I won every creative writing contest I entered in school. I'm the quietest person I know. I'm incredibly awesome!
  • there ya go. So, have u given up on that dream?
  • That's another thing I thought i was suppose to be kimmlee! But, I see now that, that's not QUITE what God had In mind for me! I think I am an OK choir singer, but, not a "Sing on my own" singer, and I am quite OK with that.... Now. LOL! ;)

  • Adam, yes for the most part.

  • very cool. thanks for reading in Brazil
  • I guess i want you to know, that i am a cat person that is just learning to like dogs! :) Also, that i am an aspiring Blogger, but i have this really bad habit( and annoying to me) of randomly capitalizing when i type...( seriously!) I don't know when it started, but, its annoying when i have to go back and change words that i capitalized, that shouldn't be. I am trying hard to break it!
    My recent post Group Blogging Project- Real - Time Connections Chapt 7 Serving Together
  • ha. well, you'll get it
  • Rick
    Uh...I love bird watching. I mean LOVE IT. Like an old man with even older bread in a bag on a park bench. Now I just need a bad back and 40 more years and I am ready.
  • haha. i mean thats cool
  • which 1 is that?
  • As of this April I will have traveled coast to coast three times in the last three years to attend the same conference. :)
  • which conference?
  • The "Emotionally Healthy Spirituality" conference that is in Queens, New York. It is amazing conference that has helped my marriage. my ministry and my overall health.
