It's amazing just watching these people express themselves, its not even about "oooh what's your deal?" It's humbling to experience that special something about humanity that we just need to be reminded not to take for granted.

      salvation is found only in the LORD JESUS CHRIST alone, Who took upon the sin of the world on that cross, bearing the pain and punishment we deserve(d), that our sins may be atoned for, and He is risen [in glory] for our justification, that we may be made right with GOD, that we may know Him, be adopted by Him and reconciled to Him -- forgiven, set free from the curse of sin and death, and made as new creatures in CHRIST alone.

    Wow I found this girl very lovely. I hope she keep that character, it's the type of people who could be very fun to talk to. I'm not really a very social person but i would love to have her as a friend I think.
