Ah... you found me, back here in my empty closet space. Come on in, have a seat over here on the floor. Sorry about the dust but I don’t come here all that often anymore, not nearly so much as I did before, when I stored a lot of myself on the shelves over there. You know, those things you think you can’t share with others because they might think you are strange or different. I use to have to shut the door when ever I came in here, so that no one could see me indulging in myself... that was before I realized that I am really not that much different then anyone else and in fact, I have found that we are all remarkably, very much the same. I wonder who it was that started that untruth that some of us are undeserving of acceptance and Love? I still enjoy coming in here from time to time to reminisce and to keep alive relationships that no longer exist for me out there. If you got some time you are welcome to look through some of my memories and maybe learn some new things about me and those like me... like you. If I am not here when you get ready to leave, don’t bother closing the door. I like to keep it open for others who might be passing by. If you have a question or just want to drop me a line, you can tack a note to the CLOSET DOOR and I will get back to you just as soon as I can. For those interested in getting a little more personal, you can follow along and contribute on my Blog JUST WAYNE or view my PHOTOETRY Blog. |

Click on TITLE for the complete story. “I stepped in and closed the doors behind me and suddenly there was complete darkness and silence. These words came to me almost immediately and they have been with me ever since.” “This time the link brought me to Anna Redsand, an award winning author and as I began reading the biography I realized she was the Sally I had once known.” “ I am the guilty one and I can only hope that the victims of my unforgivable crimes will have mercy on me and that future generations will be able to learn from my horrible mistakes.” “Accepting this Truth however, empowers us to actually make the changes necessary, in our personal life and in the lives of others around us, to create a better world.” EDDIE AND ISHMAEL“Often, when we take the time to seriously look at ourselves, we realize that many of our prejudices actually started out as simple misunderstandings between either ourselves or those that have had an influence on us at some point in our lives.” “This story was written just before leaving Gallup, New Mexico for the last time and while the characters and family are fictional all of the situations are true and witnessed by me in the time I was with them. I hope by reading it you will get some idea of what life can be like on the reservation. In no way am I suggesting that all Indian families live this way but there are many who did when I knew them.” “Life is my contribution… Life is what gives me Joy. I am a part of God’s Glorious Creation and that which I do for Him, will continue on for Evermore.” “She would never let him out of her sight, but day by day withdrew more and more into the shadows of his world…” “Passing Judgment on ourselves and on others, in this life time, is not something we can leave to GOD, it is something we must do for ourselves…” “Dear President Obama, I respect you a great deal and believe you are doing your absolute best to get our country back together... however I would ask you to consider the following:” “In times like this words are not necessary and often only get in the way… and so, To the people of Christchurch, New Zealand, know that our Thoughts and our Meditations are with you in this time of tribulation.” “I walked out of the Internet Shop in a state of confusion. 'How could it be that nothing had come in?' It didn't make any sense at all... until I rethought my Prayer...” “Once, when I was very young, I lived in the surrealistic world of Christianity. I felt safe there, protected by the Family of GOD and His Right-hand Men who were never more than a Sunday away. Things were black and I was White and that was all that mattered; my how time has changed things. I do not regret leaving that world, though safety and security have been replaced by the uncertainty of reality. Yet through it all GOD has been there and even though I have left religion behind I find in HIM strength far greater than I have ever known. I would encourage everyone to look beyond the place you are, to find refuge not in the Mega Entertainment Centers but in the stillness of your inner soul, for there is where you will find HIM.” Go to Page 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 “I had never known a “heathen person” before, at least not on a personal level, but there was no doubt in my mind when I first entered boot camp that I had just been cast into a whole company of the fallen.” “I didn't think about it at the time but now that I am on the other end of it... I see how utterly Vain the phrase can make the user appear.” “I have come to believe in a GOD of Love, a God that sees everyone of His Created Beings in the same way, without exception…” “It ripped the innocence from my soul and forced me on an endless journey of recompense, for a debt that can not be repaid. I witnessed the murder of two children and did nothing to stop it.” “She then told me that there was no such thing as a Bogeyman, and so I responded, “Well, if there is no Bogeyman, then who pinched my butt and why are you looking for him?” “All that I have done since that time has been an act of rebellion against the hypocrisy I saw in my race, my culture, my religion, my family, and my country.” “Her words were like an arrow piercing his heart. He hung his head, as tears started rolling down his cheeks. "No I haven't Julie, and no matter what I do, I can not erase that horrible night from my mind." “He believed that if he could only find this Wine he could use the knowledge he would gain to heal the wounds of the World and to make it a better place for all of mankind.” “If we truly believe that each of us possesses a Spirit... then should not Spiritual Growth be our goal in this Life… and if Spiritual Growth is our goal… then what would be the point of being only a copy of another Spirit?” “I was raised on the Right but have spent most of my life moving further and further to the Left.” “Life can be cruel at times, especially on innocent children, yet it is from out of these evil experiences that the Wat Opot Children’s Community has grown into what it is today.” “I ran over to his motionless body and feared the worst. He was breathing but unconscious. I picked him up carefully and moved him off of the busy hi-way, into a shaded area.” “I was not sure if Peepaws was born defective or had gotten his deformity from some unfortunate accident that should have taken his life… either way I felt the kindest thing for someone to do would be to put him out of his misery.”
