Though I'm a man who has suffered a fair share of the troubles in life, as so many have, I think; I've become a man who believes in the indomitable human spirit, and in my own durable nature as an individual, through a working relationship with God as I understand God, and an on-going refusal to submit to defeat. God has offered a life for me I never imagined possible. My relationship with Him has grown over the years by refusing to give up at even the most ominous signs of defeat.

Grown Through Faith
In the long run, I've grown to know the deepest of the help I need from the One who made us all, and that each of us need channel the talents He so generously gave each of us, which bring us to the point of self fulfillment.  Finally having gotten an illusive college degree, becoming a published writer, and experiencing a modest amount of success in my own home-based business, the things you'll see on this website are things I've made with my own creativity and my own hands.
 
Struggle and Triumph
You've seen people with all kinds of troubles in your going out and coming in, in life, I'm certain, if you've had any amount of life experience; I mean the wheelchair bound, the blind and the like. Well, I'm a man who developed a difficulty in my youth which was particularly challanging, and had to forfeit the music degree. I went back to school when I was able, and got some pretty good marks at that. The degree is in the liberal arts, but even so, I've augmented that project with a goodly amount of reading and independent study along the way.  I present this website with an attitude of gratitude that the One who made us all has made this new life experience of mine possible.  Frankly, I can't imagine how I survived it all.

Finding His Niche
I did leather crafting for a while, many years ago, between driving jobs, and made a little money at it.  But since leather crafting is such a pseudo-violent, noisy to do and keeping the neighbors awake, I decided to go back to crocheting instead, which is a skill my grandmother taught me growing up.  And since I was living with her again after music school turned out to be a no-go, she was right there to coach me again.  The years have gone bye, and Grandma is long gone by now, but even so, Mother has been able to give me pointers along the way, as I've been developing my skill.  Mother has even been coaching me on the basics of hand sewing, which is another part of these purses of mine.  Now, I'd like nothing better than to crochet all the day long, were it not for learning the Internet Marketing Business, which is my other pastime.
