R.C. Van Zandt
It's my life's story. It is a book of reflection, my life, the journey that I've been on and the path that was delt to me, this particular individual.
I give you the potential reader my disclaimer for any and or all of the following material that this book is about my life, written by me, about me, with events that have transpired within my life. I am and always have been an observer of life.
IF YOU GET OFFENDED this might not be the book for you.
IF YOU ARE OF THE RELIGIOUS REALM OF LIFE and or someone of my religious past and you get your feelings offended by comments regarding your choice of religion or family religion, you might not want to read my book.
If you are someone from my past that was part of the religious aspect that I partook in, please know that that is my past, yet I do have a very strong belief in God. the further from church I have gotten the closer I have become to God.
In this book, names have been changed, the area's / events are as factual as I can recall. Know this that in this book Life Through The Eyes Of This S.M.I' that all of the material written is true and accurate to the best of my knowledge and abilities.
Being someone that has lived with an S.M.I. for now the better part of the past 40 plus years, would like to acknowledge any and all psychological providers that I have been in care with, as well as all providers; I would like to let you all know that your work does indeed matter, that you have helped me. That I have used therapy and the guidance that your profession gives, to not only better myself, but also to recover after many years of serious mental health issues. I'm not fully where I see myself, but I know that within my life I will indeed beat my illness. So, to all of you providers, ... I thank you.
Now I would like to present to you my potential reader, my life.
