There Is Still Plenty of Life to Live

Lately, it has been hot, so I decided to do something that would make life a little easier. I cooked a bunch of different meals in the crock pot, put them into containers, and froze them. That way, when the weather is hot, I wouldn't have to do much cooking. Then a flyer came in from the local Mexican market. They had pineapples, plantains, mangoes, watermelon, cucumbers—fresh fruits and vegetables at really good prices. They also had beef shanks. So after the gym, I had my caretaker take me to the store. I already had plenty of food at home. I had meals in the freezer, food in the refrigerator, and everything I needed. I wasn't going to the store because I was running out of food. But when I got there, something happened. I felt happy. The store was colorful and full of fresh food. I could choose one of this, two of that, three of something else. I wasn't limited to whatever quantity happened to come in a package. I could actually look at what I wanted and decide what I wa...

Why I’m Studying Psychic and Intuitive Abilities, Energy Cleansing, and Reiki as a Christian




In 2020, I experienced an ischemic stroke that changed my life. Even before the stroke, I suffered from chronic migraines and a persistent sensation of knots or blockages on the side of my head and face. After extensive testing and consultations with specialists, no definitive cause was identified. Conventional treatments didn’t address the issue, leaving me to believe that the root cause might be something deeper—possibly an energy blockage.

As a Christian, I believe in God, Jesus, and the power of prayer. My faith is my foundation, and I love the Lord with all my heart. However, I’ve been grappling with a recurring sense of disconnection—feeling as though my spirit and body are misaligned. This feeling has surfaced at different points in my life.

One of the most striking instances occurred in my youth when, after two weeks of reckless partying and experimenting with drugs, I experienced an out-of-body sensation. It felt as if my soul was leaving my body. I vividly remember summoning the energy to pull my spirit back, an experience that left me profoundly shaken. I knew then that I needed to change my life, and I left drugs behind for good.

Years later, I encountered this disconnection again while working in a toxic environment. The negativity in that space was so overwhelming that I felt my spirit detach every morning as I drove to work, observing myself from outside my body. That job drained me spiritually, reinforcing the importance of protecting my energy and staying aligned with light and positivity.

After my stroke, I faced this disconnection once more. While rehabilitation helped restore my physical strength, it did nothing for my spirit. I knew I needed to take charge of my recovery, not just physically but spiritually as well. I left rehab determined to heal myself holistically.

Now, I am on a journey to rediscover the connection between my body, soul, and spirit. Something within me tells me that the answer lies in energy—perhaps a blockage or imbalance that I need to understand and resolve. This intuition has led me to explore psychic and intuitive abilities, energy cleansing through chakras, and Reiki. These practices are tools to help me bridge the gap between my physical and spiritual selves.

While I remain deeply rooted in my Christian faith, I believe that God works through many avenues, and this exploration is a part of my healing journey. I am committed to discovering how to realign my energy, reconnect with my spirit, and live fully in harmony with the body God has given me.

Six Years Ago, I Survived a Stroke. Eleven Months Ago, Everything Changed Again.

I Almost Forgot My S trokeversary 💔 Please read my story, share this post, and help me get the word out.  Yesterday, August 3rd, marked six years since my stroke. I almost forgot. Not because it isn't important, but because I'm carrying so much pain from the injuries I suffered in my car accident on September 6th, 2025, that my stroke anniversary completely slipped my mind. That first year after my stroke, I honestly thought I was going to die every single day. I was constantly dizzy, scared, and didn't know if life would ever feel normal again. I remember telling myself, If I can just make it through the first year, I'll be okay. I had to learn how to walk, talk, and eat without choking all over again. Then came the second year. The third. Things slowly got easier. Life gradually started feeling normal again. I still have deficits—mostly in my left hand and a little weakness on my left side—for the most part, you couldn't really tell when I walked, or at least tha...

Before You Give Advice, Make Sure You Know the Whole Story

  One of the hardest parts of sharing my recovery online isn't the physical therapy, the setbacks, or even learning to walk again. It's the people who think they know my story after watching three seconds of a video. I recently shared my 10-month recovery update as a new below-knee amputee. The video wasn't asking for gait critiques, medical advice, or strangers to analyze my every step. It was documenting where I am in my journey and celebrating a milestone that took months of pain, determination, surgeries, setbacks, and rehabilitation to reach. I was sharing progress. I was sharing hope. I was sharing what it looks like to start rebuilding a life after a catastrophic accident. But instead of people simply celebrating that milestone, some immediately jumped into telling me what I should be doing differently. "Ditch the crutches." "Take gait lessons." "You're going to fall." Here's the problem. They didn't know my story. They didn...

Sometimes the Setbacks Are a Blessing in Disguise

  Sometimes the Setbacks Are a Blessing in Disguise When you’re rebuilding your life after a life-changing accident, every setback feels like another thing being taken away from you. For me, the last few weeks have been incredibly frustrating. I was finally starting to feel more confident using my prosthetic leg. I was making progress. I was walking more, getting stronger, and beginning to feel like I was getting a piece of my independence back. Then came the blood blisters. My amputated leg developed painful blisters, and suddenly I couldn’t wear my prosthetic. I had no choice but to slow down and give my body time to heal. At first, it felt like another obstacle. Another delay. Another reminder that recovery doesn’t happen on my timeline. But something unexpected happened. My remaining leg and ankle finally seemed to have the time they needed to recover. After my ankle surgery to remove three screws and the plate that had been holding my bone together, I had given it about four w...

Don't Borrow Your Dreams from People Who Never Chased Theirs

Don't Let Someone Else's Limited Thinking Become Your Limitations The reason I wrote this piece is not to rant. I recently lost my photography career after a tragic, catastrophic accident where I lost my leg. Now, once again, I'm being forced to reinvent myself. And that's kind of been the theme of my whole life: reinvention and resilience. I mentioned to some of the people closest to me what I wanted to do next, and boy, did they have opinions of their own. Not only am I still healing ten months after my accident, and my body is still going through trauma, but my brain is also forced to figure out what's next. When I told a couple of people what I wanted to do, they shut me down almost instantly. But then I had to think about their lives. All they've ever done was exchange their time for money. They don't understand me. I'm a creative person. I don't punch in and punch out for a J-O-B. So, I'm guarding my plans closely and only sharing them with...
