Favorite Quote: "To be loved but not known is comforting but superficial. To be known and not loved is our greatest fear. But to be fully known and truly loved is, well, a lot like being loved by God. It is what we need more than anything. It liberates us from pretense, humbles us out of our self-righteousness, and fortifies us for any difficulty life can throw at us." – Timothy Keller

Free-for-All: I have a long-haired German Shepherd that keeps me busy most of the time with her high energy. But, when she is not taking precedence, you will likely find me hosting different events at my house, being with friends or reading a good book. I am constantly looking for book recommendations so if you have one, send it my way!
