City of the Damned




The people have been spoiled by wealth and ease

The city is a place to hide for the damned

Wicked hearts full of evil

Fearful and suspecting

Not able to discern evil or good

As they judge everyone according to status and money

They’ve lost something important

Yet are unaware of the tragedy

They’ve been conditioned

They’ve been brainwashed

By a targeted social engineering program

The city is full of pride

Haughty people in vain pursuits

People who love money and pleasure

People who don’t fear God, nor think they are mortal

They are ignorant of their miserable state

They mistake it for a cloak of glory

When it is a rotten rag that stinks like sin

Fake smiles and conversations

Fearful motives as they accuse and manipulate

They destroy and cause chaos

With their lies and deceit

All those who have discernment should stay far away

From the city of the damned

Is Writing on Medium and Vocal Worth It?

Honestly, the writing site, Medium, is my favorite from the user friendly and quality aspects with reading and writing. I like the concept, the pay structure, how it works in theory. Why then, am I not writing there anymore? Deleting my Medium writing account wasn’t an easy decision, and I’ve had some times of regret in losing what I considered the best compilation of my articles online, yet, overall, it was a good move for me. When it comes down to what matters, where we write makes a difference in our identity as a writer and person. Medium continued to show me that it had much different values than I did as a conservative Protestant Christian. That is the main reason I’m glad I’m not there anymore. Yes, it is a shame that I had to delete hundreds of articles, all chronologically published, representing my work in a professional and quality way on their excellent writing and publishing site. And, the yearly membership fee really wasn’t very much, around $60, and I probably made aroun...

Working in the Addiction Field

Press enter or click to view image in full size Why being a Substance Use Disorder counselor is meaningful. Why being a Substance Use Disorder counselor is meaningful. Recently, I was hired to work as an addiction counselor for substance use disorders. The official title is Certified Drug and Alcohol Counselor (CADC) intern, or a Substance Use Disorder counselor (SUD). I wanted to explain why this is a meaningful field to work in. When looking at the statistics for substance abuse in the U.S., the numbers are significant, yet they don’t or can’t tell the entire story. These stats are gathered mostly from the self-disclosure of people being surveyed or screened/treated for substance abuse; this means the stats exclude people not screened or treated, and include people being dishonest about their answers. A few interesting stats ( U.S. population: 347 million ): 29.8 million individuals have an Alcohol Use Disorder in the U.S (NCDAS, 2023). 134.3 million individuals have used alcohol wit...
