: About Me

I am a world traveler, adventurer at heart, and pursuer of God. I have struggled with substance abuse, God and the devil fighting over my soul, and come out the winner, but not without many years of terrible loses. Often God let's us flounder for a reason. His reason, for me, was so that I would share my experiences with those less experienced who might be struggling through the same swamp of addiction.

Addictions are my specialty. I truly believe God kept me alive for a reason, and that reason is manifested in my writings. My words are love from my heart, designed to nurture the soul, to share my pain and joy with those others who may be in need.

It is a subject that brings us down to our primordial core, down to the very roots of our animalistic desires, to the truth about our sexualities that even the most seasoned theologians would prefer to avoid. It is from the interpretation and impressions of prophets and scholars expressed outside the Decalogue that, we know anything about how masturbation is perceived by God, not from people reading scripture. Although, the average man doesn't read the Bible, ...
