Spiritually: I start with this because this is very important to me...my life for Christ. I love the Lord, and I strive to be more like Him, although I fail miserably every time. Sometimes I may not always show that I am about Christ, but regardless, my life for Christ is my ultimate quest in this life.

Emotionally: I am a very sweet person...many people consider me a giant teddy bear. I may look hard or mean, but this is one of those cases where "you shouldn't judge a book by its cover", because I am the furthest from that. I am just a big ol' softy with a big heart that has a lot of love to give to that future Queen I wish to spend my life with.

Psychologically: I consider myself a very intelligent and very wise person. Although I am young, I have been through many experiences and learned enough wisdom to discern between right and wrong, and the application of common sense versus analytical thinking.

Physically: I am 6'4, 300 pounds. I workout as often as I can because, well, why complain about size and shape when you can do something about it. So I decided to stop complaining and did just that..."something about it". As for your size and shape...as long as you are comfortable with you, I will be too!


My Ideal Match...
I am seeking a long-term relationship that leads into that life-long commitment known as marriage. But first, I wish to explain what I am looking for. I am looking for a woman who loves the Lord first and foremost. But as far as everything else, here's a list of admirable qualities I am looking for:
-Loyal/Committed/Steadfast
-Sincere/Honest/Trustworthy
-Loving/Caring
-Overly affectionate
-Understanding
-Supportive
-Sympathetic/Empathetic/Compassionate
-Intelligent/Wise
-Able to Compromise
-Open book
Yes, quite the list; but again, I am looking for my Queen...a woman who I intend on serving for the rest of our lives as her MidKnight in that dark but shining armor. I will serve her, and she will serve me, and we will serve each other eternally! :)

Poetry is my passion...here's a couple of the many poem I have written:

A BOOKS COVER
A books cover: Analyzed, assessed, and evaluated with one look
To hook you, or to be left as the opposite of something took
A books cover…a certain necessity, yet doesn’t always speak for what’s under
For such is the blunder of wander instead of wonder when it comes to this lover

Many a time have I been looked upon, prejudged, and passed by
Judging this book by its cover, without even taking a look inside
I don’t understand why society abides by such a discriminatory fallacy
This policy of believing who I am is what I look outside, as I’m given a new identity

Though a false identity, for the outer make-up of this man doesn’t derive who I am
For a pearl of great price awaits she who opens me up and investigates this clam
I am much more than you think, and if you took the time to know
Who I am, I will bestow my attributes that lie beneath and even further below

But a dig site am I not, for all you must do is merely scratch the surface
To surface a surplus of that which I meant for you to see on purpose
Though all of this remains to be seen, for first beyond this cover must you uncover
This front cover to see eternity, our destination of love for each other

But eternity will never approach if you merely glance and walk away
Never to belay and examine me past my initial display
Which has no say or bearing on my character even though
You maintain a false belief that because of my outer, the inner you already know

So don’t take the risk of studying this books cover just to dismiss
For amiss will you be when remissive actions from blind eyes miss
The big picture, which lies underneath, so do not perceive to presume
To know the real me, for you will never know this good thing if you assume


A SOFTENED HEART
Love spell cast, producing this lasting effect
Of a past emotion accepted to help correct
Complement, and complete a life once so incomplete
As you treat my hardened heart with a dosage of loves heat

Though seeking this not, for fear of another projected her & his
Seasonal episode of circumstances to thwart further growth of happiness
Togetherness ending in a code blue, with sadness for you for and heartbreak for I
As you confide your final wish for us to desist this struggle to persist for bliss's time

Afraid of this I am, though moreso am I afraid of
My heartened heart being broken apart below to above by love
From the inside out, clearing away debris, grime, and grout as spring cleaning begins
To spring forth written serenades & hymns for you as you change my heart within

But I have already let you in so close, and the more that you seek
I am pleased to give, yet reluctant to see a hardened heart change from strong to weak
Structural integrity compromised, as seismic activity comprised
Of care, love, and passion shook in a disorderly fashion a hardened heart, my possession prized

Icicles' falling like raindrops from this hardened heart as your love keeps calling
To melt away this once icy stay of protection as you keep overhauling
To restart a stalled heart, and as the meltdown carries on
I begin to realize all along I was wrong to protect my heart from who it belongs

My hardened heart detests in protest this contest it has just lost
Though the cost of a defenseless defrosted heart's worth more than the one just tossed
Away to be lost at sea for eternity, never to be again in unity, for better is it for me
To finally have a heart of a softer consistency after that hardened hearts indecency

Process complete, for now my hearts free, breathing easily loves air supply
Of you + I as you, my pride and pleasure, help me to derive
To a conclusive truth i have deduced and induced to ensue
And proceed with certainty a softened heart's new ability to truly say: I Love You

A first date can consist of many things. Many times, the focus of the date is on how much money is spent, and not on who the date is spent with. So for me, a first date can range from a visit to the beach, to dinner and a movie, to a walk in the park. Like I said, it's about the person time is spent with, and not the money spent.
