About Me

Call me Will, William, Billy or Bill, even.I've never liked being called Willie very much. I'm 38 years old-- I have lived 8 years longer than I expected to.I pray alot, possibly more than most people. I haven't figured it out-- all I know is it works for me. I DO BELIEVE IN GOD, in case you're wondering.No-- I'm NOT going to hell because I'm gay. If you think so, maybe you need to reevaluate your position in the Universe.I'm a recovering alcoholic and drug addict. I preferred vodka, heroin and Meth. You're thinking "This guy never knew if he was coming or going..." and you'd be right.Today I do know where I'm going-- FORWARD. I'll do two things today-- love something, and learn something. And if all I love today is myself, I'm doing a hundred percent better than most people I meet.BUT I do love people every second, every minute of every day. With my whole heart. I look around and observe people struggling and hating and retaliating-- blocking themselves off from the Sunlight of the Spirit with things like Resentment. Fear. Pride. Ego and Prejudice. And those people I love twice as much. I love them until they can love themselves. And then I love them some more. It makes my heart feel better.Somebody told me once when I first got clean that there are four things I'll never have control over-- PEOPLE PLACES THINGS and SITUATIONS. I didn't believe him then-- today I do. I believe acceptance is the answer to any of my problems. And acceptance is a key to Gratitude.If I haven't told you today-- I love you and cherish our friendship.

Humble people can do great things with uncommon perfection because they are no longer concerned about their own interests and their own reputation, and therefore they no longer need to waste their efforts in defending them.
