I am Adam. I am a gastronomer a Truth seeker an Artist and a Musician


This blog is a split blog between a passion for  food and a deep desire for truth in Jesus and Random tidbits of art.


Who is God? What am I? What is the World? What is the virtuous life? 


These are common questions that every human who has experienced pain, pleasure and any experience in life has asked.

 How do I know I am not made out of carbon and will become some new carbon material. 
What makes us Human, what makes us logical rational beings able to be "good" or "evil," to cause "joy" or "sorrow?"

How do we know what ultimate "good" is from which all of our actions are based?

Are we interested in transient "goods" of the earth which bring us pleasure for a little while then are gone, or are we interested in obtaining excellence of character and helping others to obtain their greatness?
I was once at a Martin Luther King Jr. Service in Geneva, NY and one speaker said something that will always stick in my head. He said "If you don't use what you got to help others, man you just a fool!"
Another quote to help attain happiness and peace i have found is from Bob Marley's son Zion Train. It goes "Don't gain the World and loose your soul, wisdom is worth more than silver and gold."
