My Memoirs is my frequent record through my 2nd Stage in the mind of an adolescent battling the evil forces of the world for my own freedom in overcoming it. Therefore, it should not be construed as fact or the words of a confident adult, but the striving to be my own person as I weed through the messiness (make-believe and truth; what seems like an adult to a child and what is actually an adult) that is my subconscious (i.e., coping with my feelings as I break away from the 1st stage of childhood). I provide My Memoirs here only so those who research human development will later understand more of the journey through the three stages of life–of those in the past, present, and future. This book is much like the Old and New Testaments in the Bible — books written by adolescent minds that, as an adult, would most definitely be shorter by at least three-quarters than what it is now. And if or when that time comes, peace will become a reality because the Bible will then actually be in reality, and thus, actually make sense to everyone who reads it by the wisdom it provides. – Tim
