| Introduction | I am a grateful recovering sex addict and alcoholic. I am loving, caring, and at times intellectually engaging (note the qualifier "at times"). Meaning in my life is quantified by how deeply and passionately I love others, and my daily commitment to "be peace" in the world around me. I believe that the violence and injustice in the world is but a reflection of the violence and instability in our minds. One day at a time I do my best to accept life on life's terms, and to be a "human being" rather than a "human doing." |
