Who am I? After years of helping, counseling, speaking, teaching and sharing, I have had many requests from people who have requested a blog and web site to share some of the things I have learned over the years. All things are spiritual, whether we think so or not. If we allow God-given principles to enter our lives, our behavior will change.

I was placed in an orphanage shortly after birth. I was classified an un-adoptable because I had a leg that was shorter and didn’t have a knee area. Even though I was adopted at age three, there were some definite issues that took me a while to overcome. It wasn’t easy for me to join a family, and it wasn’t easy for them. I would say that my teen life years and my years well into my twenties were fraught with danger. I lived on the self-destructive side, for I felt as though I had no worth. Then I had a powerful experience that told me that God knew my name and what I felt and was reaching down for me. I grabbed hold and my life changed.

I eventually joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in my twenties and from that time on, my behaviors changed, and my happiness increased.  Did that mean life was easy?  Not at all!!  I got married, and had a son who died of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome almost within the first year of marriage.  It was very tough and I can remember realizing that I had a choice in front of me.  I could be very bitter and angry at God ( because I could feel those feelings inside of me) or I could put it all in the hands of God.

  I made the choice to put all of this in the hands of God and told him in a long cold hospital hallway that night that          " well, Father, he was yours before he was mine.  If it is your will I give him back with love and gratitude that he was part of  my family."  As soon as I made that decision, it was as though a powerful arm went around me and bore my agony.  I was able to function and had some very powerful experiences through this event. 

Life went on and I now have four children, the youngest being a son who has Down syndrome.  He is now 30.  He is still bringing spiritual experiences to our lives.  So five children total, two girls, three boys, and five grandchildren  and I can honestly say that life is good but hard.

Professionally I have been a private counselor and worked in the addiction fields.  I also have been a principal over a middle school and also an elementary school.  I have worked with many troubled youth and parents both within the school system and in private counseling sessions.  I have been an adjunct professor at Southern Utah University in the Masters program dealing in Special Education.  There have been many speaking opportunities as well training other professional and church leaders in the fields of addictive behaviors.

Because life is getting more complex I have decided to write a book, which is now published  and can be purchased through Amazon and is called " It started with a lie."  There is a web site called life is good but hard which is also filled with previous talks to youth and adult groups as well as a Monday thought.
