An Introduction

So, I feel like I owe everyone an introduction. I am K. For confidentiality reasons, I will not divulge my real name nor the name of anyone (person, company, etc. I may post about). The one exception will be my two dogs. I decided to start this blog to chronicle my life as an outdoor therapy youth counselor, as well as the mishaps and adventures of my life away from work. Having two dogs certainly makes for a few adventures. I decided to name my blog Phoenix Forever Rising for a very special reason. The young men I work with, well come July I will work with, are young men that are in the fiery depths of their own personal Hells. For one reason or another, or even a few reasons these young men made some really bad decisions and the consequence of those decisions is to be removed from family and friends for nine months to a year and placed at an outdoor therapeutic camp for boys, where they live in a group usually consisting of twelve boys and two to three counselors, aka. chiefs. The young men that successfully graduate from the program have risen from the ashes of their personal Hells to be reborn again as what we hope to be contributing members of society. Thus comes the name Phoenix Forever Rising.

Well that's all for now,

Fenex
