Anacreontic Verse 1 - Edward Ebbs's Blog

About Edward Ebbs
(Show Details...)
Bloggers Photo

I was born in Los Angeles and grew up in Culver City, California until my parents moved to Washington State for a season, then Lebanon, Oregon when I was in high school. It's been a long time since.

I'm rather easy going and flexible, well, you might need to ask my wife. I believe that just because I believe in something, it does not make me right and someone else wrong. I am open to changing my mind on certain things based on someone's ability to convince me otherwise. Ha-ha :)

I have a strong belief that the journey of life is important, as the end does not justify the means to achieve an end. I believe in Jesus Christ and his philosophy of compassion, equality, inclusion, forgiveness, tolerance, peace, and most importantly love.

~ Peace
