Touching Temptation

On A Warm Summer Day In 1968, When I Was Seven Years Old, I Witnessed My Parents Fighting. Moments Later, I Watched In Horror As My Father Threw My Mother Out Of The House, Leaving Me With Him. I Was Left At The Mercy Of A Man That Had Become Ruthless, Mean, Aggressive And Abusive. He Made The Rules And His Rules Were The Law And He Wanted Them Followed To The Letter-No Matter The Cost. Later That Night, My Mother Returned In Hopes Of Taking Me With Her, Only To Have A Gun Shoved In Her Face And Forced To Leave Again-Changing My Life Forever. With The Trust And Love Of A Horse, Ten Years Later, I Learned To Love Again.
