As the darkness in this world does grow,
The Light in many hearts fades,
This Life is certainly a test,
But it is not based on grades,
Eternal life is our reward, by gods endless grace,
This is based, on how we approach, the trials that we face,
Do not lose your Faith, when the worlds light does grow thin,
Embrace the divinity inside your soul, and allow the light of god, to forever, shine within.
Fighting the fight of faith, is not something that is an easy path, but living life with righteousness is much better than facing gods wrath.

I lost my wife back in 2019 and I started this as an outlet for my emotional expression in regards to the pain from the loss, it has helped me substantially since that time, and I have put great effort into all of my efforts since then.

Self Actualization
Always know your strong, even on days where you feel weak, there is only one of who you are, remember, you are unique. Pave your path, take the road less travelled, don't follow the crowd, follow what you wish to do, and be humble, as well as virtuously proud.

Letter to our Queer & Trans Youth
Hey, you. I thought I’d start this letter by telling you a little about myself, just so you know who you’re dealing with. I’m an emotional dad, father to three amazing kids who we met through the foster care system, and whose presence in our lives has really transformed my sense of responsibility to the communities that surround us. The connections we’ve made with one another, with our extended families, and with the communities where we live and look for belonging have catapulted us into this whirlwind of emotional tumult which, while not easy by any stretch of the measure, has also been remarkably healing. I realize ours is really only a one-sided chosen family, since our kids didn’t get to choose to live here, but I’d like to think that they did choose to let us love them, which allowed them to grow to love us. And I think that’s where I want to go with this letter- to a place where you can find belonging and healing- even if the pathway there may be peppered with some emotional tumult.
