Libertarian Superman

I took a political quiz and then a super-hero quiz and thus these results.

ACCORDING TO YOUR ANSWERS,
The political description that fits you best is...

LIBERTARIAN

LIBERTARIANS support maximum liberty in both personal and
economic matters. They advocate a much smaller government; one
that is limited to protecting individuals from coercion and violence.
Libertarians tend to embrace individual responsibility, oppose
government bureaucracy and taxes, promote private charity, tolerate
diversity, support the free market, and defend civil liberties.

&

Your results:You are Superman

Superman-90%
You are mild-mannered, good, strong and you love to help others.

I wouldn't put too much stock in these things...

Part of one

I always want to write, but always replace it with other things (aka busy/priorities). So now that I have a sec, I will write down part of one. It has no title yet cuz it's new.

She reached over to turn the oil lamp down a bit more. The light that illuminated her face dimmed just like her voice which was now softer and lower than a minute ago. " I am not affraid now" she said with a shot of determination in her voice. It was a new world indeed, and all she had tried to do was live in it the way she thought to be productive, but for the past three generations that had not worked for her, or at least so she thought from what that world had thrown back at her.
I couldn't offer any advice at this time which parralized me because that's what I did...normaly. My mind went through all the things that could have been done, however, those thoughts seem to quickly be overcome with the thought that it was useless to regret those things in the past we can't change or control. I stood up and walked to the door, I knew I had to say something before leaving, and so in those seven steps I conjured up my exit script;
"When we listen too closeley we tend to forget, but when we hear clearly we know what's right, I'll see you soon" Once it was all out I opened the door and stepped outside without waiting for a reply.
As I made my way out the door and to my car I realized how ridiculous my statement must have sounded to her, but to me it made perfect sense at the time in relation to what happened. My leather shoes got wet and muddy as I unlocked the car door. I found it to be a great night to drive with the windows down and was anticipating the feeling of the evening wind on my face. It's a mistery I thought, how a smell can spark memories and nostalgia, but tonight was such a night and by the smell of the night I was taken back to a summer I spent in Michigan, I recalled evrything from the baseball cards and Root Beer to the window unit in the attic of an old house we stayed at, and the feeling that it would never end.
As I pulled slowly out of the dark gravel drive way I am forced to slam on my breakes as the old lady stood in front of my car. The headlights only illuminated up to her waist and from there up it was a blur. "Hold on" she said. Her frail body slowly made its' way around the front of my car. The years had forced her to be hunched over just a bit, she had grown accustomed to it and never complained about it. She carefuly opened the passanger side door and sat next to me. With the engine running and as a bunch of unidentified flying insects hovered around the front of my car attracted by the headlights, she said "Let's drive"

VS.

2 Corinthians 4:16-17

"Therefor we do not lose heart, though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all."


Don't change your plans (B.F.5)

Sometimes I get the feeling that I won't be on this planet for very long.
I kinda like it here, I'm qute attached to it, I hope I'm wrong.
All I really want to say is, you're the reason I wanna stay.
