The sands of time is an English idiom relating the passage of time to the sand in an hourglass.

The hourglass is an antiquated timing instrument consisting of two glass chambers connected vertically by a narrow passage which allows sand to trickle from the upper part to the lower by means of gravity. The amount of sand determines the amount of time that passes as the chamber is emptied. The image of the sand being emptied in the hourglass creates a visual metaphor for the limited duration of human life, and for the inevitability of change in the world as a whole.

I haven't really thought about it until now, but I would like to welcome everyone that is following this page. You are an encouragement to me and what I'm trying to accomplish.
Please feel free to share the first post on this page about the book PTSD The Beast Within.
Just last week at the VA I gave a book to a Marine, not knowing he was online right then in a PTSD class. He was very excited and beside himself that I handed him a book at that moment.
Please help me get the word out to as many of our Brothers and Sisters dealing with this issue as possible.
P.S. all proceeds go to help fund Pathfinder’s Equine that helps Veterans and their families!

Last summer we were contacted by a Veteran's family asking us to reach out to him. We did and requested that he read PTSD The Beast Within. A couple of weeks later we were making plans for him and his family to visit Pathfinder’s Equine to help them through their issues. His PTSD had taken over his life and it was effecting his family as well.
They arrived in what can only be expressed as in a very traumatic state. Two weeks later they left with hearts and minds of JOY unto the LORD! Yesterday, when I initiated a buddy check he responded and we discussed where they were at as a family. While most was good, he was in a place that held difficult memories. I reminded him of Joshua Chapter 1 that we had discussed when he was here. The focus of Joshua 1 is this "be strong and of good courage".
Today he texted me again and explained how he is now helping other Veterans in his community. Through the Grace of God he has turned from being controlled by his PTSD, to using it to help others. This goes along with my life's MOTTO... "Others LORD other's, let this my motto be, that I may live for others, more than I live for me"! Praise God for how mighty His works are in the lives of mankind!!!

Nearly every day I meet someone dealing with PTSD and encourage them to read this book. PTSD The Beast Within...
Quite often I'm contacted later on by those individuals to thank me for reaching out to them and for writing the book. We must continue to reach out to each other and be "all we can be"! Please consider supporting our mission by becoming a sponsor of Pathfinder’s Equine our equestrian ministry that helps Veterans and their families. Thank you for all the encouragement and kind reviews of the book. This book has also helped thousands of Veterans and Civilians...

35 years ago we were staged to leave the Port of Dhahran in the morning. As the air campaign began we were ordered into mopp gear. All our vehicles were loaded on transport trucks, a couple of miles away. Serving as the assistant chemical NCO I "geographically borrowed Top's" humvee to go inform all the vehicle guards as we had no other communication with them. As I was approaching the convoy the whole sky lit up as the first sortie of planes upon returning, went from "blackout" to turning on their landing lights. It was one of the most impressive sights I've ever seen. The next day we moved out and were dropped off just about 100 miles shy of the Iraqi border.

35 years ago I was setting on a balcony at MGM, looking at the moon, wondering what the New Year would hold.

35 years ago (outside) I was getting ready for Christmas with my wife & 2 small children. (Inside) I was preparing for war. We were supposed to deploy on December 23rd... but ended up not leaving until December 30th, so I did get to be with my family for Christmas 1990 not knowing if I'd ever see them again. 5 days later I kissed them goodbye while they slept and walked to my unit without looking back.

When asked to summarize this book I replied... "PTSD is not what you think it is... or what the media has made it out to be..."
This is not a sales pitch... but purchasing this book will not only help you personally, but all proceeds go to support Pathfinder’s Equine helping Veterans and their families.
