 | Biography/Personal Statement
How it was...Well I'm sitting here at the barber
shop enjoying the cool, warming breeze and trying to think of what
life was like during my addiction. Very simple...chaotic, utter
turmoil, havoc raging from every angle. It was a living nightmare. All
my self respect was lost to shame, guilt and remorse. Every time I
used drugs or alcohol I continued to cross lines that Id previously
promised never to cross. Ultimately I found myself sitting on an oak
bench in a 6x6 holding cell asking out of desperation for God to
"get me out of this jam one more time" "This was
it....truly Gods will be done"
He answered my prayer and today continues to bring Gods blessings. The
Tabor House welcomed me into this brotherhood. Here from the initial
consultations with Gez, and from stepping through the door it has been
like a breath of fresh air. I feel the infinite power and presence of
God lying in the rooms of 1000 South Broad Street. Gez and the
brothers in the house have been true inspirations and fine examples of
how to live clean and sober.
Life has been rediscovered here at tabor and everyday brings new
opportunities to embrace a program of sobriety and begin to learn how
to live again, One day At A Time.
