In The Hospital

One early morning- 2:00 am - I found myself sitting on an emergency room table after passing out in the company of friends. What I was doing- or had been doing- is not important right now. I will deal with that in time. But I was sitting on this table as doctors and nurses in turn bought me bad news: enlarged heart, high blood pressure, kidney failure, and on and on. I was lucky to be alive. How did I get to this place? Why was I living this alien life? I was told by a doctor I wouldn't be going anywhere anytime soon...

Begin at The Beginning (almost)

This journey of mine on the path of Personal Development is actually part two. Since I was in my teens I began to read and practice self-improvement concepts. I was and am very active in the political and civil rights movement. I have received wide praise for my accomplishments that range from events organizer to lecturer to writer and radio show host. I have been profiled in most of the major media in New York State and some national outlets.

On a personal note, I was and am a martial artist in the truest sense of the word. It is a philosophy and a way of life for me. I have most of my life been a vegetarian. I didn't drink or smoke. Somewhere along the way, I fell off this path. But the road was high and I came crashing down. I found my health ruined, financially broke and homeless. This was just a short three years ago. How did it happen? Why did it happen?

So this journey now is really part two. It is what I like to call "finding my way home." Stay tuned.
