<p>The struggle with being authentic is you have to do so even when you don&#39;t want to be. Otherwise you compromise your authenticity. </p>

A Exercise in T.I.M.E.

With openness and honesty I'll share my experiences of life as a man raising young men in a very complicated society and world. I'm a Veteran and Special Education Teacher and have devoted my life to serving others. 
I've struggled plenty along the way and will continue to do so, by choice if not by circumstance. Maybe you could benefit from what I've learned and will learn in my journey, all I can do is offer. 
I wish you well.
