Stuart Drive
Life took a left turn on me when I was ten years old and I haven't been able to find my way home since. One world became two worlds and then three with each one as relevant as the first or the last. The here and now began to fade into a fog of never ending yesterdays and days ahead. By the time I was fourteen I had forgotten who I was or who I wanted to be. Everything had become a competition and eventually an all out war for priority within my thoughts. Three competing for one available slot.
I felt like a passenger in my own life and held hostage. I was me but it wasn't me, my thoughts were my own but they weren't my thoughts. And it wasn't me riding my bike anymore but it couldn't have possibly been anybody else.
From the age of ten to when I was fourteen my world became a confusing and terrifying maze. Different shades of reality began to emerge that others in my world couldn't see and endless layers of time lost within folds of the known. Sounds crazy, right? And it is and was and always will be. Some call it Schizophrenia but I've come to accept it as a wider view of reality.
From Edenhurst to Stuart Drive and never again.

I believe in hope.
I’ve always viewed religion as man's attempt
to justify his own immorality in moral terms;
an imaginary man made path to God that's filled with the worst of humanity....Causing more death and destruction throughout history than any other force.
This is why I feel strongly that God hates religion.
He sent His Son Jesus to defeat it.
God created His own pathway with His own rules.
He owes us nothing yet still made available a bridge leading directly to His doorstep; One not defined,
ruled or decided by man. We are ants thinking we understand the mind of God, that we somehow know better than He does.
Religion kills, plain and simple.
It's a pathway to certain death.
Loving each other more and hating each other less.
Seems like it should be pretty easy, but it’s not.
It’s one of the most difficult feats to achieve
and takes much effort.

Razed in Religion.
Isaiah 38:
15 But what can I say? He has spoken to me, and He himself has done this. I will walk humbly all my years because of this anguish of my soul. 16 Lord, by such things people live; and my spirit finds life in them too.
If I fail God's most basic…
Matthew 22:36-40 36
“Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?” 37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”
Matthew 7:21-23 21
“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ 23 And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’
Consider me guilty.
I’m thankful for Mercy
& Forgiveness.
I’m thankful for Second Chances.
The Truth.
John 13:34
“A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples,
if you love one another.”
