Wonderful Early Chldhood; Healing Pleasures Child Abuse Chapters

 My sister and I were born in he early fifties.  Our father was a minister and very kind and generous, although my mother, a teacher, divorced early in the marriage.  He took us everywhere we wanted to go, horseback riding, trips from San Diego to San Francisco and private schools and met all our needs.
Our grand-parents lived in Belvedere an Seacliff, in San Francisco.  We were able to visit them from San Diego, frequently.  One grandfather had a beautiful view of the whole city, a fishing boat called the Mog Mog, a salt water pool, an Outrigger Canoe in his bayfront, a greenhouse where he raised begonias, a pier where we fished, a war room for WWII, and wonderful parties and trips to the Ice Capades.  The other grandfather invented the first portable electric heaters and we had great uncles that visited us, our own pinball machine and were treated like royalty.
In 1959, we had a step-father appear in our lives.  He was immediately violent to me and I remember the first time and place he slapped me around.  My sister was molested by him.  I felt betrayed by my Mother (enablermolester) and became withdrawn and didn't trust anyone, I was a hostage.  I felt like my happy world had fallen apart and I never got over it.  My father stopped visiting.  We lived in an upper middle class household ane we all had to walk around naked and call our step-father Dad.  He swore like a sailor and I was his bartender and punching bag.  Every Saturday morning I would steal $20 - $40 from his fat money clip because I didn't like him and wanted to buy fishing supplies.  Then I would go in the backyard trash area and smash liquor bottles which was fun.  We had the best of everything and camped all over California and went skiing at Mammoth and Big Bear.  I joined the Boy Scouts and became an Eagle Scout however I was molested in scouting.  My first sexual education was a stack of old Playboys in a vacant lot.  Parental counseling about sex education is the ideal.  My step-father committed suicide in 1966.  I finished school, enlisted in the USCG, became an in-service honorably discharged veteran, the spent 40 years "on the road", finding my way and quite often running away from what I didn't understand - I was confused.  I joined a Hindu Ashram called Ananda Meditation Retreat - ananda.org, the Unification Church, other non-profit volunteer agencies and have lived in Hawaii for the last 20 years.  I worked at many different places and for friends to make ends meet.
For a lifetime I've struggled with confusion, poor impulse control, problems with authority, dealing with being discriminated against, attempting to stay on a positive path and now live in a Room and Board House reveiving VA and Social Security payments.
