| Introduction | Um, yeah. Well, just be glad I'm not telling you in person, because you'd either get a sentence of non-sensical gibberish or a three hour epic tale (both have happened). Seeing as space is limited, I will come closer here to the former. A brief history: after a relatively breezy first eighteen years, life took a down turn (coincidence?...I think not!). In the midst of this struggle, a spark ignited my spiritual life, which would reach its fulfillment 2 1/2 years later in May 2004. Since then, things have improved. Nowadays, I'm working two part-time jobs and putting in some volunteer work at St. Sebastian's Parish. I'm currently discerning my vocation and have been for some time now. I'll be busy for the next year or so at least, so things are on hold. Updated: 11/27/06 |
