popsicle man

Behold the Popsicle Man!
As a child I gave in to whatever whim I desired. Play outside? Why! when i can fight dragons inside! Perfect temperature, cozy couch, the comfort of a controller in my hands. What can you call me? Dragonslayer! Do my homework? why? I can learn so more watching Discovery channel, in HD, and not move more than three muscles changing the channel during a commercial. Stay at home and have dinner with my family? why? I can go out and play all night with my Friends, and by play i mean watch a movie at their house instead of mine. A problem? what problem, why deal with it? As long as i ignore it it's not really there.... right? Oh what fun i have, oh what great joy... but soon the realization is made. When i grow up i have to make decisions that are hard, my homework actually counts for something, if i don't do anything the problem doesn't fix itself or go away... it gets worse. Little did i know what all my lackadaisical tendencies were building in me... or ripping out of me. All of my fun has in fact eaten wholes through my character, eroded away at my will, and deteriorated my constitution. A man i have become due to sheer force of age, but the inside betrays the truth, no longer a whole being, I am a perfect, pretty, attractive shell, ready to be blown over by the first possible breeze of hardship.
Behold, the Popsicle Man!

The Beginning- A good place to start

So, whoever you are you're probably thinking that using the word conservative means i'm some extreme right wing nut on a mission to trash everyone who doesn't believe the same way i do. Well in some respects that'd be an alright statement. I do not consider myself strictly a republican, nor do i see myself hanging out in the democratic party. I believe, very strongly that God has a place in everyone's life, however, and that yes, He cares about the politics in America, as well as the world over. my blog also isn't contained to politics. I have been thinking an awful lot about what's going on in the world, but God has also been leading me down paths of self-improvement and opening my mind to secrets that i never before realized! I'm pretty stoked. This "blog" is simply going to be whatever i happen to be thinking about at the time, a journal of sorts that is made up of stuff i kinda want everyone to know about. You, my dear reader, are more than welcome to contradict me, challenge me, disagree with me, or dislike me because of what i have to say. I'm not here to prove people wrong, although i deffinitely believe in a right and wrong, i'm simply going to say what i think needs saying. That being said enjoy! and don't expect every blog i write to be quite so cordial.
