Is the working title for the yet to be written account of my personal story. through multiple years of addiction, homelessness, redemption, faith, recovery, and the strange miracle of surviving long enough to change in Baltimore City, Maryland. Notoriously known for being one of the most drug, crime, and violence ridden cities in the county.

All while fighting for the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health of not only myself but everyone else around me with life and death stakes every single day for 700 days in a row.

(Note to Reader: I understand the potential for controversy in the name but it wouldn't have the same weight without it. I apologize now if this may trigger or offend anyone, and want to express my sincerest respect and admiration for Jesus and what he lived and died for. Without his guidance, love, and mercy I would not be here to write this.)

To now having 700 days of recovery also behind me, substance free, choosing to face life on life's terms, taking responsibility for the wreckage I created. finally recognizing the heartaches and pain of those who love me kept awake at night not knowing where i was or if i was even alive at times for months on end. Not least of whom being our daughter Molly and her mother Tarryn.

It can be challenging continuing to process, heal, grow and move forward with purpose and consistency with the weight of the past still hanging over me, taking up space in my head that could be better utilized on creating and fulfilling my bigger purpose and paying forward to others the experience, strength, and hope, and maybe I can actually write this true, authentic, life changing, powerful book someday soon. :)

The last major blockade standing in the way of achieving freedom from my past and freeing space in my mind and heart is the nearly $20,000 in unpaid child support that has been growing these last 4 years. I realize now as the man reaching the other side of his ignorance, how much better my loved ones deserved of me. and a deep desire to make things as right as can be given the circumstances and my abilities

So with and by the grace of a loving God, I ask that my mistakes not be held against the ones who needed me when i was unable to carry myself. To be forgiven and move forward with a clean heart, mind, body, soul, and balance sheet. Standing up and stepping into freedom, clarity, purpose, and sharing the good word the miracles exist, and I am one of them.

First $16,000 received goes immediately to child support office and then by virtue to Tarryn and Molly for whatever they need.

Remaining $4000 and anything beyond that will allow me to have some mental and emotional freedom independence from the stress of mindlessly chasing money. Provide a sense of security, peace of mind, and weather a 3-6 months expenses while I write this book and create the foundation for the rest of my life.

If the $20,000 goal is met i will guarantee everyone who made a contribution of any size gets a copy of the book when its done (put your email in the note section on donation page) Please share link, post on socials, or otherwise pass along as you feel called to.

Much love and gratitude for each and every read, thought, prayer, or contribution. no matter how much or little. <3
