see inside
My eyes are always so naked, so open. Like an unlocked diary willing to be read by anyone unexpectedly searching – setting aside their morals and convictions to see inside someone else’s world.
The window to my soul, I’ve heard it said about them. But if all you see in them is you, are you then my soul? Everyone I encounter becomes a part of who I am. Not everyone I meet, but those I come face to face with. Those people you run into and can never let go of. Who are you? Where did you come from? Why can’t I stop looking at you? Looking in you. Looking through you.
If you think you are not important, think about this: even after you are gone and the emotions are long gone with you, there is always a face to fill up the vacancy left behind – your face. The time you spend with people becomes and imprint on the heart. An image the eyes will never forget.
My naked eyes want to tell stories my heart would rather hide. The story of my life recorded and stored in the most open part of me. Who I am I cannot conceal, and maybe that’s the way it should be.

my wife has the same eyes – you can read her most hidden thoughts into them….
…although I should be commenting on your most excellent prose, I cannot help but admire your English! It’s just excellent. There is no other way to describe it…I tip my hat to you, Shy!
Beautiful words

I don’t know what “should be,” but I’m very glad that my eyes help me express who I am and see others as they are.

Setting aside the morals? not easy thing to do, I try but I see just fog or darkness.

Boyce Bible College a Southern Baptist affiliate and undergrad university toward Southern Seminary as executed a terrible action. If you know about Martin Luther, you know that when he was brought to the church authorities and asked to rebuke his thesis he asked for a day to think it over, which the authorities (probably one of the moments in time where the catholic church was corrupt at its worst) granted him. Lets just say that something similar happened at Boyce Bible College, except the dean wasn’t as merciful as the 15th century Catholic Church and refused the student the time to think it over. You should know…
That if you enroll in Boyce Bible College and say anything negative about the school, you have committed an offense worthy of expulsion.
Jake, a Boyce student has lost several thousand dollars and has had an entire semester wasted at Boyce because he was expelled in the middle of the semester for xanga comments he made, where he stated a low opinion of the Boyce youth program. Visit my site and read through this mess. I have the exact quotes that got him expelled (with a link to the exact site). Ironically, a slanderous email from one of the Boyce faculty members, and the situation spelled out to the detail. Also on the site are link to the email of the deans involved (plus the dean of admission) and to the agencies that accredit the school. Please help this cause and to purify a school that represents Southern Baptists. Tell your pastors of this, and anyone and everyone!
That is very moving
I got a Brazil Soccer shirt
and a few other things. I’d like to go back to Brazil, this time for a vacation 
. The people I worked with there are so friendly and happy. The food is just phenomenal 
.
I’m a lot like you. Except I wear shades.
Through your eyes and through the looking glass of my computer I see a new world thanks….
Nice to see you are still writing..
