**  **  Kieth Green, Second Chapter of Acts, Lamb, Steve Green,and Michael Card. In world music---I like some of a little bit of everything except jazz or rap.
|
|
 **  **I enjoy reading, poetry, writing, scrapbooking, and a wide variety of arts & crafts. I like some T.V.---- but what I like often bores other people! I like documentaries--- Frontline is a favorite. I also like the Discovery Channel, the History Channel, and News on all networks.

 **  **  **The Bible of course! If I had a favorite book of the bible, it would be soooo hard to decide, but I would have to say that Romans and Revelation are frequented often by me. In the "other" world---I like the "Holocaust Chronicle"(ISBN: 0-7853-2963-3) and "Waiting For Snow In Havana" written by a close friend, Carlos Eire, a professor at Yale University. You can put his name into your browser and find out all about him and the book, along with all the other books he has authored. Waiting For Snow In Havana won the National Book Award, and is his true experience account of what life was like as a child in Havana when Fidel Castro siezed power in Cuba. An insightful look into what life is like when a Dictator takes over---ring any bells???

I have in my hands two boxes
Which God gave me to hold.
He said, "Put all your sorrows in the black box,
And all your joys in the gold."
I heeded His words, and in the two boxes
Both my joys and sorrows I stored.
But though the gold became heavier each day
The black was as light as before.
With curiosity, I opened the black,
I wanted to find out why,
And I saw, in the base of the box, a hole
Which my sorrows had fallen out by.
I showed the hole to God, and mused,
"I wonder where my sorrows could be."
He smiled a gentle smile and said,
"My child, they're all here with me."
I asked God, why He gave me the boxes,
Why the gold, and the black with the hole?
"My child, the gold is for you to count your blessings,
The black is for you to let go."

**  I like MANY things! I like taking photos of soooo many things! I like drawing, and writing, although there never seems to be enough time for them. I like sitting by the lake and listening to the waves. I like exploring the world wide web. I like good friends and good company. I like people who have a great sense of humor! As far as animals...I like almost all "critters"...but cats are my very favorite!

**  I really hate spiders! Now I know they're God's creatures, and they serve a purpose...I'd just like them alot more if they'd live anywhere that I'm not! Other than that, the only things that come to mind are human flaws....like people who have "hidden" agendas, and people who derrive pleasure from other people's pain. I don't like characters who are power-hungry, or betray your trust. On the "lighter" side--- I don't like okra...but so far...it's not been throwing itself on my plate!
