What are you into? (not a poll :p)

Life!!! LOL

I played chess off and on for 20 years. Played hundreds of live games online, took some chess lessons and read a few chess books. Eventually became some of an expert at it. Then I started feeling like it was idolatry so I stopped playing. Another hobby of mine is building vocabulary.

I've long been engrossed by chess. I love tactical activities. Time wasn't something I could commit, and there is so much to learn! Building vocabulary is another very worthile endeavour, this tied into literature and poetry is something I did commit to, that and foreign languages. Delving into the original manuscripts of the Bible has been especially rewarding.

Welcome to Christianchat Anderswelt. Thank you for your reply. I joined in February of this year and usually just do the chat rooms. I just started the forums.

I used to be a professional orchestral violinist for several years. On the monthly concerts we played mostly standard symphonies by composers like Mozart, Brahms, Stravinsky, Ravel and Vivaldi. I even played in the ballet company orchestra one year. You have eclectic interest, diverse is good.

That is very impressive to say the least Reggie! I can't say I am that accomplished with the violin, but I enjoy it all the same. Given your background in music, I thought you'd might appreciate this:

Much appreciated Reggie. I came here after discovering the app on Google Play Store, but have been more active on the forum. I'm liking both very much.

My hobby is making friends with people who cook/bake a lot and feel a little sad when they have nobody to feed.

I watched the whole video. That's neat how the stars and the whales praise God. I especially liked the explaination on stars and the sounds that they make.

Food. Naps. Singing.

Two of those can make money. I can't think of any way to make money by taking naps.

Surfing, but I'm taking a long break for now. Now I'm trying to get back into mountain biking and learn how to be a decent snowboarder. My goal is to incorporate surf style in snowboarding. in my mind I will be riding a perfect wave, but everyone else see a beginner snowboarder.

Something very similar to this. Enjoy!

I love words,therefore I read and study alot! I also love music,it can be uplifting,cleansing,thought provoking,ect.ect.
I am a people person so I like engaging in communication anywhere and with anyone. You never know but that you might change the course of someone's life by just acknowledging there presence!

I love working out, laughing, playing nerf with my son, cooking, serving, writing, reading, music, hiking, and most outdoors sports.

Wow, You all are extraordinary! It's a wonder you found this lonely site... I use to do a lot of those things but not able anymore. Along the way lost relationships and the ability to play sports. Then I found this site.Welcome...
