Simple Frustration – by Al Davis
As I child growing up, in our house it was hammered into the heads of me and my siblings by our father that we had to “work our ass off” in school and get good grades due to the fact that he was paying “thousands and thousands of dollars in school fees” for us and wasn’t going to be wasting his money on “useless kids.” lol Read more…
Yeah, so I took a couple of weeks off of writing this thing. After you share of your self the way I’ve been doing, on an energetic level you feel kind of open and “sore” (or at least that’s what it’s been like for me) and I didn’t have the “energy” to write anything, so I left this alone for a bit.

So finally, June of 2014, after years of thinking that no idiot therapist could know better than me about me, I walked into a therapist’s office after setting up an appointment, having already had resolved within that I couldn’t overcome myself by myself. Read more…
It was the early 90s, the summer after my Freshman year in college, the month of August to be exact, and two friends of mine and I were walking around in the Village to talk to girls.
We were walking east towards Broadway, coming from Washington Square Park, and walking towards us were these two femme girls holding hands. Read more…
If you aren’t friends with me on Facebook, this is your lucky day, because you get to hear about an incident I had on the subway a few weeks ago.
If you are friends with me on Facebook, and have already heard the story, guess what? This is your lucky day too, because you get to hear an encore. (Oh stop, you know my stories make your day)… Read more…
A few years ago, I was involved with this girl, and during one of our late night conversations, she mentioned to me, “You know what, though you’re the oldest child, you actually behave like you’re either the youngest or the ONLY child.” Read more…

“She only likes the bad boys.”
“You’re too nice.”
“How come I only attract the a**holes?” Read more…
My last blog post where I expressed some of my doubts about what we call the present day Bible and how Christians use the Bible has sparked some interesting discussions about God, the Bible and Christianity.
This had led me to write this week about my own unique walk with the Heavenly Father.
I’ve often been looked at as too “Christian” by New Age people and too “New Age” by Christian people.
Does that mean that I’m confused? Not necessarily. What it does mean is that when you seek to walk with God in your life, the way in which God leads you will not make sense to most people, not even to you, but you know what? It doesn’t matter.

HAPPY NEW YEARS EVERYONE!
It’s funny, I wasn’t even going to write a blog this week because when I sat down to write something, my mind hit a total block and I couldn’t come up with anything. I didn’t want to force anything so I left it alone and resigned myself to the fact that this was going to be a blogless week.
