Cheers, no more tears

When I recall my checkered past,

Tears pool together like thunderclouds—really fast.

I can barely see the checkered board at last.

I sit to play with Christ my Lord—

He smiles and says to me:

“No lying, no cheating;

Rejoice, you are foregiven.

You are foregiven—

by my authority, from heaven.”

Scott L.

Born Blessed in South Korea in 1969 and raised in Baltimore, I’ve built a career with 20 years in customer service and 10 years in behavioral health. The crowning jewel of my studies came when I earned the only passing grade of an A from a Harvard professor — a true master of the craft of Shakespeare

And the English language, whose guidance opened the gateway to worlds of imagination, discipline, and wonder.

Married for 25 years, I share the good life with two dogs (Isabella and Juliet) and one cat named Maddie. In my free time, I enjoy writing, biking, gospel music, and spending time with my pastor and friends.
