The room I sleep in expresses who I am.  Manly dark wooden furniture holds my family items and clothes. Everything has its place and the room is always neatly organized, even where the people who are important in my life remind me of friendship.  Michael, my best buddy at Carmel High School, Natalie and Chelsea look at me through their pictures.  Jesus on the crucifix and Mary and Jesus together remind me that he is always with me.  The walls hold a puzzle of Kumamoto Castle, acknowledging my puzzle prowess as well as a trip to Japan.  Wall and bedspread covers are blue, like any guy’s room.  The light of my lamp adds clarity whenever I need it.  Finishing this room is the music from my CDs and player, and two paintings given as a gift for inspiring someone.  

I am ready for action.
