// Who Are Any of Us, Really?

Hi. Like you, I am a real person, and like to talk about real life. You know, real subjects from a real point of view.

I say things how they really are, because that is how life really is. I like to discuss real problems, and real methods on how to solve those problems. I like to discuss things that matter. I like to discuss things that don't. I have seen how real this life can get, and because of that, I want to share with you real stories, lessons, and wisdom that I have gained from these events.

Also like you, I have good days. I have bad. I laugh. I cry. I dream. I do my best to enjoy every moment that we have on this earth, with the little time we have it.

// The Journey

"I could list my successes and failures. I could tell you my first memories are of my father trying to kill my mother and me, or that I spent much of my childhood without anything resembling stability. I could say that, in spite of statistics, I built a life for myself—proof that those born into abuse can not only escape but become devoted partners and parents."

But what do you truly want to know? I won't sell you a curated story. Instead, I will write with honesty about what I know, from cold streets to twelve-bedroom estates: the lessons that crafted me into the person I am today.

My Promise to You

This blog doesn't fit a single topic, genre, or niche. I am not here to sell you anything or lure you with clickbait. Everything I post comes from me—not AI-generated fodder. I want you to hear my voice as you read, the soul that I put behind my stories.

Joshua Goth

This is my journey of refusal.

The refusal to quit, the refusal to stay down, and the refusal to give up on someone I once believed never mattered... myself.

So, let's be real. I am really happy you are here.
