Why, hello there – welcome to my little domain here on this blog! 😃 This is where I’ve committed to accomplishing my personal goal of sharing with all of you guys some of the absolutely fascinating stuff that I’ve stumbled upon – either through my intense studying and research as a Cellular & Molecular Biology Student/Research Assistant in college, or the impact that was felt on a personal level from the multiple travels taken extranationally as a young guy from the infamous Sweet Home Alabama!

This is a photo of me that was taken during a speaking event of which I was graciously invited to participate, at least due in part to being the coordinating Instructor’s First-Born… But seeing as the topic of the event was Religious Diversity, I made for a fairly unique guest in being an obnoxiously self-avowed Atheist, in spite of being born and raised in the heart of the Bible Belt and in a Christian home just like the rest of those in attendance. One such attendee happened to be my younger brother – a locally well-known Worship Leader who has been employed at least-part time at various Southern Baptist churches ever since he just started high school, and even while he’s working on his third year of college. *Note: I am no longer an Atheist; I have come to embrace Spirituality back into my personal life and I no longer reject the possibility of God’s existence. More on that in a future post if there’s an interest for it, so just drop a comment about it on here to let me know.





So… Yeah! This has been an extremely brief introduction to who I am as an individual, and a detail-free rough sketch of what my life has looked like up until composing this post! If it sounds like this is all pretty boring or uninteresting to you, I’ll eventually be covering more substantial topics like Politics, Video Games, anything Sci-Fi, Philosophy, Maths, Science mainly in the focus of Biology, Economics, Music, Classic English Literature, Performing Arts, my experiences from having earned a Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do, and much more! As innocent as it may sound, my past isn’t all straight A’s and golden-star stickers either; I’ve been placed in handcuffs from a serious encounter with Law Enforcement, I’ve experimented with multiple substances (par for the course of science, ya know), and I’ve even had a number of personal friends that ended up on the wrong end of a dangerous weapon in one way or another due to bad decisions and unfortunate circumstances… I’m writing this blog as a real human being with real life experiences just like you all reading along; there are ups and downs, side-splitting laughs and gut-wrenching pains, and times of getting lost in intimate moments or in utter isolation and loneliness…

My life is a story just like all of yours, and I’m just putting mine out there for anyone that might want to read along as it continues to be written. Thanks for at least giving me the time it took for you to read this first entry, and I hope that you’ll join me for more in the next one! Keep love in your hearts and a relentless adherence to reason in your minds; our happiness depends on those around us, but we can still find good company even when we’re alone just by looking carefully enough.
