Antonio Mora:  

lt (Atlas Shrugged: Who is John Galt) When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares. - Henri J.M. Nouwen (Out of Solitude: Three Meditations on the Christian)". More about Antonio:"I think Marilyn Monroe said it best “I’m selfish, impatient, and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I'm out of control, and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.” I may not be perfect but, as the bible says “he who is without sin cast the first stone.” Like anyone else, I have my ups and my downs and my good and my bad…but what I can say I am human and I am imperfect. But what I can say is I am probably one of the most loyal and giving individuals you will ever meet and I ask nothing in return except love, compassion and for some friendship. I am the type who puts others before myself, I have been told in the past that “you need to learn to put yourself first” while that may be true and I probably should, a creature of habit can’t exactly break who they are and have been since day one. I am that guy who when he texts people can either right a single one word answer or as some refer to them as “a novel” or “short story” (long messages) for those who get my “short stories” or have gotten one in the past…sorry lol, I tend to think when I text…sometimes good and sometimes bad…and think of things to go with what I am saying…and other times I have “Blonde moments” - ironic since I have no hair - and text like 5+ messages one right after the other…what can I say I either forget a point or though I was going to share or think of something new. I have my flaws just like the next person or maybe it’s just my ADHD, but as some would say I mean well and I have been called a sweet heart a time or two…ok, maybe once…but thats beside the point. I would like to think that everything I have in my life, I have worked hard for and just as hard to keep it, for the last 11 years I have worked my way thru the ranks of the Navy to attain everything I have accomplished. It may have taken me longer to get to where I am then some but, in doing so I not only learned how to have faith in my God and trust that every trail and tribulation he has put me thru was to serve a purpose, but also were lessons that were designed to teach me something about myself or learn something else. Lets see now, whats left…oh well I am the 3rd of 4 kids, born and raised in Washington State, I’m an uncle to some pretty amazing kids who are truly blessings(though not born yet). I spent 11 years of my life in the military (Navy) and I am grateful for the lessons that it provided me and how much it helped me grow up…I guess all in all you can say I am: weird, grateful, giving, nerd, strange, loving, kind, loyal…etc. I guess thats just a little about me, guess if you want to know more you will have to be willing to take the time to learn more about me and ask questions…make your own determination on me just like the ones in my friends list did.".
