I am the author of 5 books. 1 on PTSD and 4 on Personal Empowerment. I've written over 200 articles on personal and business development

My newest release "Wide Asleep" will be released in March 09

I have slapped the devil and cursed the divinity. The divinity had a plan for me and now I know my mission statement in life. I spent half my life with the U.S. Army and the Federal Government going places and doing things that haunt me at times to this day. I was gifted with more brains than brawn and am grateful for all the blessings in my life today. I was told by several people including my wife to update my bio and give more of an insight on who and what I am and what I stand for. I honestly never felt that I had that much significance in the world to do this. For over 20 years I lived like a Nomad living out of a duffel bag and under a shady veil.
I am held together with bailing wire, 132 staples, half of one lung gone, 5 broken noses, 6 concussions, numerous broken bones, and many bullet holes in my soul.

Why I'm not dead yet is only an answer that the divinity can provide. I tried, never by my own hand but by the enemies I have encountered and the booze and pills I use to swallow (suicide on the installment plan)

I never wanted to be an author or speaker although I greatly enjoy it.

I accept that this is my instrument in this life that I must play.

I live because others died for me

As my friend Bill says “I have had my day in the sun”.

I have been featured in Time Magazine for my work in Africa, USA Today, CNN, The New York Times and too many others to mention.

I am at peace with the universe and am grateful to my wife and many friends who have seen me plunge from the heavens to the gates of hell and back again.

I love you and there is not a damn thing you can do about it! so HA!

Thank you for looking into my world from my "lens" I am forever blessed with more abundance than I may ever need.
