Most people have heard the saying that "preacher's kids are the worst ones". I'm Sapphire Stone, a preacher's kid from Atlanta, Georgia. There isn't much difference between a saint and a sinner. At least that is my opinion on the matter after spending my life around "church folk". Some people really believe that just because they go to a church every Sunday morning, they get some kind of "free pass" to judge other people; believing that they are "holier than thou", and everyone else is headed straight to hell. I used to believe what they said, until I grew up and learned that just as standing in a garage does not automatically make you a car; going to church on Sunday morning does not make you a Christian nor give you the right to look down on other people. Some even go as far as to assign themselves the task of being judge, jury, and in some extreme cases, even executioner. I had almost fallen victim to those homicidal hypocritical people. I did not choose to be a PK, and I am sure as hell nobody's saint. I have never claimed to be. I never wanted to be in the lime light. Never wanted to have my life on constant display, however it was the life that I was given; the hand that I was dealt. Like any good poker player, I learned to keep a good poker face and play my cards right. It took me a while to find my way but eventually I mastered the game. I've made it through hell and I'm back to tell my story. So today, if you would be willing to view "church folk" in a different light, perhaps a light that has never been seen before, I am laying it all on the line; the good, bad, & sometimes the very ugly. Brace yourself, as you journey with me inside my diary, The Diary of a PK.
