What's in a Soul?
Growing up a "Christian" so many people would question me about if there is a God and humans go to "Heaven" when they die, what about animals and plants, and other organisms. So, that's the question of the day for me. But I am going to answer it myself too...
I have come to the conclusion that every living thing has some kind of energy or soul. I feel that if it has a conscious it has a soul. If it can make a decision it can have feelings, if it has feelings it has a soul.
I remember watching the show X-files and on this particular episode this estranged surgeon was operating on humans trying over and over again to find where the "soul" was located in the body. I am sure there are so many thoughts and opinions, but this is my blog so I get to give my own opinion.
Now, I am sure I will do my research on the subject one day, but for now, it's how I feel. The soul isn't just reserved for Humans. What do you think?

Warrior, Poet, or Puppet
So, I have been pondering who I would be?. Who am I is always the question on my mind. First let me define those characters:
The warrior: fierce, fighting for what he believes, has awesome passion for things that he loves. Not afraid to express himself and be himself.
The Poet: Has passion for the things he loves, but fights through words not physically. Is a speaker, a man who is elegant with his language. A lover, not a fighter.
The Puppet: He aims to please. A follower. Has passions, but puts them aside please others.
Me, I feel at most times I am both a Poet and a Puppet. That's not good for me. I don't like that feeling. I want to be the warrior. I want to be Maximus, William Wallace, Teddy Roosevelt. I want to be adventurous and fight for what I love and be a warrior for my family.
