You may know that I've lived in Minneapolis for two years, that I work with kids, that I'm a painter. You may know that I'm what I call "Lutheran, more or less". You may know that I have brown hair, brown eyes, might even know I'm ambidextrous.
But you may not know that I'm weak. That I try to buoy up everyone around me, when I myself am struggling to find the strength to keep myself afloat. You may not know that I'm a natural people-pleaser, that I am afraid to express my opinions because I don't ever want to upset anyone. You may not know that I dabble in things deemed "New Age"--aromatherapy, yoga. You may not know that I can be very, very sloppy. You may not know that I have certain (ahem) habits.
You may know that I strive to be more than I am. I want to grow.
You may know Clint, or you may not. I hope you will. I hope I will.
Hey Clint. We all have things about us which make us unique. :) I'm into the paranormal...ghosts, and goblins, and all that jazz. I don't dabble in it, but, I love researching it.
Welcome aboard. I'm glad you posted an introduction. I hope we can strengthen your walk with God, and be a validating part of your self-discovery.
God bless u. Darrel

You're definitely welcome. Please post whatever you want to! Even those of us who didn't know you already are bound to be curious after THAT intro!!! Look forward to hearing from you more! :>
...and there are secret ways to diss Vin Diesel without getting killed, hee hee (runaway!!!!)

Oh, by the way Clint, there is no place or topic that is sacred.

Hi Clint. Ignore the fact that these clowns hijack every thread to make it about them!! I'm glad you're here! And I think we should all strive to be authentic while still being careful of other peoples feelings. I think there is a balance. Something that we could probably all spend our whole life never exactly perfecting. Don't be too hard on yourself.

As open as I may have been in my intro, I realise that there is a lot only addressed obliquely. I'm not sure what's appropriate to address how, but I hope to find the ways.
It's good to see you here! 
I just live and let live...unless you start badmouthing my Vin Diesel... 
Vin kissed ME, not the other way around! You're REALLY trying to get my arse kicked!
