I Engaged In An Adult Consensual Affair

I Am Resigning Because My Secret Leaves The Governor's Office Vulnerable.

More Than Anything Else I Recall Being, Or Trying Very Deliberately To Be, A Perfect Child. Not A Goody Two-shoes, But A Kid Who Did Good, Who Worked Hard And Met Every Expectation. I Strove To Achieve In The Excessive Way That Psychotherapists Tend To Regard With Concern.

To Be Able To Love And Live In Freedom Means To Be Able To Make Godly Decisions. To Make Godly Decisions We Have To Surrender Our Egos And All The Falsity And Shame That Goes With It.

Throughout My Life, I Have Grappled With My Own Identity, Who I Am. As A Young Child, I Often Felt Ambivalent About Myself; In Fact, Confused.

I Realized That I Had Screwed Up My Life Living Different Parts Of My Life In Different Places. I Wasn't Whole. I Wasn't Integrated. I Wasn't A Complete Person. And After That, Came Out, Spent Some Time At A Psychiatric Hospital.
