Our Third Eye

 

Our Third Eye

Who are we? A simple enough question that shakes us to our core. Our choices have led us to the person that we have become today. Some wonder whether they made the right decisions or not and this is what makes us reflect back on the lives we have lived.

Come take a journey with me as I regale you with my soul searching stories that sometimes gave me more than I expected and other times, when they were too wild to handle.

Tales from the Jessica Files:

After all, this is a love story

Jessica and I live in a world that The Department of Rules and Contracts controls, but it is not required to be under their purview. Most people who seek entry into this lifestyle are denied based on the testing criteria put forth by the DORCs. Many requirements are placed upon applicants.

The essential part of living this lifestyle is the consequences of violating the rules and even bigger ones for lying about them. The DORCs are not very forgiving and have been known to punish the $%^& out of people for violating their contracts with the DORCs, not just with their partners. Lots of lawsuits there too.

By punished, I mean that the DORCs would first perform a standard audit of both parties, requiring supporting documentation for any activities during that contract’s life. The DORCs would drag people through the court system and sue them for breach of contract if the audit was not to their liking. And it never was. You could never win.

It is ugly, painful, and completely unnecessary.

The best and saddest part is that the DORCs won nearly all cases because the contract was very explicit about the rules and regulations, roles, and expectations. If you violated them, you’d be subpoenaed and then dragged through the court system, which was always incredibly painful, especially in a smaller community like that under the DORCs.

The contracts had many ins and outs, but the most important thing when dealing with the DORCs was being absolutely transparent and infinitely honest. There was no reason to get into trouble unless you were a troublemaker. And some were, and you would hear about them, but their time would come.

Jessica and I took our relationship exceptionally seriously and did everything we could to follow the rules.

Given that we had to file weekly status reports with the DORCs, knowing that we would get audited if things were out of sorts, we lived by the contract.

And the vast majority of people under contract did so as well. It was paramount. As I mentioned before, you could never win. You could not succeed in this lifestyle if you didn’t follow the rules set forth by the DORCs, let alone follow the rules set aside for you and your partner.

There are many different setups, but it always came down to two people who identified however they wanted; the DORCs didn’t give a $%^& about that, a Dom and sub (or D/s). We knew of subsections of this where the two people in the contract would “switch” from Dom and sub as they saw fit. And the DORCs didn’t care.

They just wanted everyone to follow the same set of rules. And that even was true for people who contracted as Dom/slave. I understood that, but I didn’t get it.

One of the contractual agreements between two parties is made between a third party, the DORCs. The D/s were bound to one another, but both were bound to the DORCs. You didn’t have to uphold yourself to your partner, but you sure as $%^& best to the DORCs if you wanted to succeed.

MIND: PSYCHOLOGY--The Untold Story...

This is a book about the most important discoveries in psychology. Not just the gnawed bones of the studies in a textbook, but what has been left out of what you think you know. From Genius to Suicide Bombers, from Science to Sex, all the best they never told you in school.

• Quest for the Mind Code; how the mind is programmed by the environment.

• New Evidence: How learning "hardwires" the brain for language, emotion, culture, sex....

 • MInd Control is an everyday occurrence. Psychology’s General Theory of Relativity; Kamikaze       pilots, suicide bombers, celebrity, and Sacred Cows.  

• The Brain: How experience controls the biology of the brain: Adrenalin, Cortisol, and Neurotransmitters flood the brain in response to words, Hollywood horror movies, and the girls shrieking “Witch, Witch!” at the Salem witch trial...

•The success of Genius is not about the brain, it is about learning how to think. How the greatest minds in history made their discoveries, in their own words

• Cogito, ergo, cogito cogito: I think, therefore, I think, I think. The fact that we can think has created the illusion that we do think. Test yourself.  Perception determines our reality.

• What the greatest minds in psychology know about how the mind works. Understanding how the mind works gives us the potential to control our own mind, just as Einstein’s understanding of the atom gave us the potential to control the atom. We are far behind in that understanding.

Surviving Alcoholic Parents:

A Teens ABC Guide to Thriving In A World Of Chaos

Do you feel that your home life is just not normal?

Do you feel different than everybody else?

Do you know, or suspect that your parent's drinking is out of control?

Are you embarrassed to have friends over for fear of what you might walk into?

Do you dread going home in general just because of the uncertainty of what you might find?

Are you afraid to talk to someone about it for fear of being laughed at, made fun of, or worse, having them tell your parents?

YOU ARE NOT ALONE!

Over 18 million children are growing up with alcoholic parents. These children are going through some very tough times. There is manipulation, violence, trauma, abuse, neglect and dysfunction at a level that is hard to imagine. I know because I experienced it my entire childhood. What I didn't know at the time was that as a child of an alcoholic I was developing habits and traits that would follow me into adulthood, Thankfully, I eventually understood that if I did not seek help, I would be destined to struggle with relationships, intimacy, codependency, and a number of other issues my entire life.

"Surviving Alcoholic Parents" helps young adults tackle these issues early in the process, before the damage has been done. It reaches young adults at a critical time in their lives, when they don't know what to expect, or who to turn to. It educates them about the disease of alcoholism, teaches healthy coping skills, and encourages them to seek out the support they so desperately need.

By sharing my personal healing journey, years of research and guided activities, young adults will learn how to thrive in their current situation, while emerging into adulthood as victors instead of victims. "Surviving Alcoholic Parents" empowers teens and young adults to be the best people that they can be, even while living in chaos.

Way Out Wayne

 

Way Out Wayne 

Things don’t change much in Wayne, West Virginia, but there hasn’t been this much excitement in years. The high school football team looks like a genuine state championship contender. That was before the Plymale situation...

Senior Scott Plymale isn't the biggest star of the Pioneer team, but his grit and presence are a key to the Pioneer's success this season. Coming off an injury that ended his junior season, all is going according to plan until a bizarre on-field incident threatens to jeopardize the Red and Black's dream season while it throws his personal life into chaos. 

Genuine, funny, and unvarnished, Way Out Wayne is a fictional account of one team and one town’s quest for a football championship while it explores growing up in modern Appalachia.

Way Out Wayne is suitable for most audiences; however, readers should be aware that it features some strong locker room language and underage drinking.

Way Out Wayne paints a vivid portrait of the many faces and facets that make Friday nights in the fall so special. When I read these pages, I can smell the popcorn, see the players ripping through the brightly colored paper banner as they run on the field, and hear the cheers and grumblings coming from the home stands. 

The book also encourages the reader to ride the very real rollercoaster known as teenaged life and experience the trappings of a close-knit but occasionally troubled community. I was blessed to have a career that allowed me to write and talk about high school sports for 25 years, and this book immediately puts every one of my senses back on the sideline.
