About me:
Im E. J. or Edge to a lot of you. I am a Christian. I believe. I dream. I think everything is art in its own imaginative way and form. It is how you look at something compared to the way it is actually viewed. This is a glimpse into my heart, mind, soul, and life. I view myself as caring and truthful and never flawless. I am constantly making mistakes and learning from them too. We are all human. We all want what we cant have. We never realize what we have until its gone. My biggest thing to work on right now is my confidence; confidence to stand alone when no one else is there to stand with me; confidence to come out of my shell; the confidence to go after my dreams; to go after what I want; and the confidence to simply be me in a world that doesnt mix well with different in any way. If you are not like someone else, you are viewed weird; however we are all striving to be different and not like the other. I dont understand it. All I ask of you is to be yourself. Its the one thing that is sacred to you; the one thing people cannot change unless you let them. I'm me and if you don't accept me for myself, then you don't. Just remember as ee cummings put it, "To be nobody but yourself, in a world which is doing its best night and day to make you everybody else, means to fight that hardest battle, which any human being can fight, and never stop fighting."
**For those who are concerned, my top friends list is arranged alphabetically by first name.
Who I'd like to meet: I love meeting all kinds of people. Someone who will impact my future in a positive or negative way. Either way, I can learn from them. Someone with a big heart, big sense of humor, someone who knows what they want but is easy going, someone who's upfront about their feelings and is considerate of mine, good-looking, knows how to have a good time, someone who can goof off and be silly but can settle down and hold an intellectual conversation just as easily.
