The decision to translate my Testimony from Spanish to English is rooted in the hope that people from the English speaking world would use it as a learning experience. The reasons are obvious given the moral decay that Western Society is facing in the 21^st Century.

The road to salvation is never a simple one being filled with the thorns of temptation to engage in Sin. What I know is that following things never changed in life for me

1. The Belief in God and that He created us in His image which debunks the racist evolution theory of an errant English subject.

2. The concept of Family is Father, Mother, and Child instead of the distortions practiced by Hollywood, Boston, and Washington [as well as London]. The Bible never intended for two males or two females [Leviticus 18:22] nor did it intend for one man to have multiple women.

3. The attempt to be true to oneself and maintain my identity [being myself].

My reality started before I was born when my parents left Cuba in search of freedom to practice Christianity. It was not easy that an island with prosperity turned into hell in one moment.

I was born in Ohio within that reality as well as the reality of the Buckeye State. My discovery of what occurred in Cuba was an accident when I looked at a book about the island as a five year old.

The book showed happiness and then I turned the page. The next page showed people angry, bitter, with sadness and a firing squad. A prison was also present in another page. I thought to myself “Poor people” until reality set in and the seeds of a personal civil war were planted. In addition that reality, I developed The Albania Syndrome.

The term [Albania Syndrome] is a personal one referring to an individual who wanted to be left alone and not have anything to do with anyone. This is in reference to the European country that isolated itself from the world for nearly five decades during the 20^th Century

For those who thought I had an easy road being a child in the Midwestern and Northern state in Ohio or that there was ONE nation are out of touch with reality. As a US Latin [Cuba, Spain, and France], I never felt a part of a society that was divided on the basis of race, ethnicity, and religion even though there was a denial on their part.

It was a society [I am saying the North] that said “In God We Trust”, talked human rights, and said “We Are One” yet treated the minorities [and Christians] as different and preached abortion as well as evolution and homosexuality. It was also a society [Ohio] in which those who hated God and loved the immorality of the world used physical force against those who disagreed with them. I was there and saw many things.

It also treated the returning US Veterans from Vietnam as if they were trash and blamed for even the most little problems in the world. Many lost their homes, families, and lived on the streets. When I pointed that out to people in Ohio, the response was spewed with hatred. In the end, my response was the same with the insults.

Even those who assimilated and became a part of the crowd were marginalized. Those that were not marginalized put their trust in money and distorted thoughts. The 1960’s and 1970’s in the North [Ohio] was full of this polarization and I was at war with myself and society because of it [as well as the reality of Cuba].

The only time there was peace up North was during Christmas and the 1980 Elections when Unity suppressed Hatred and Division. There was also peace when I went to sporting or electronic events.
