Denied Passions

He wasn’t part of the plan –
but sometimes fate scribbles in the margins.
Moon on my wrist is a quiet explosion:
a love that felt like a whisper,
left behind in hoodies, taxi rides, and ink on skin.

A song for anyone who’s ever been marked by something fleeting,
and still feels it, like breath, like air.

Er war nicht geplant –
aber manchmal kritzelt das Schicksal einfach auf den Rand.
Moon on my wrist ist eine leise Explosion:
eine Liebe wie ein Flüstern,
zurückgelassen in Hoodies, Taxifahrten und Tinte auf der Haut.

Ein Song für alle, die von etwas Flüchtigem berührt wurden –
und es noch immer spüren. Wie Atem. Wie Luft.

Moon On My Wrist

Resisting temptation is a challenge for anyone, but for those taking prescription medications--particularly for mental health, mood regulation, or focus--it can feel like an even greater uphill battle. While these medications are often necessary and helpful for stabilizing certain conditions, they can also interfere with the brain’s natural ability to manage impulses and self-regulate. This makes the act of saying “no” to bad habits, distractions, or cravings much more difficult.
Various mental health consumers from different walks of life have also seen powerful results. This growing number of mental health consumers have sought alternatives to conventional psychiatric treatment like me, aiming to reclaim autonomy and deepen their sense of self. For some, this journey involves the careful and deliberate process of tapering off mental health medications under professional guidance. This decision is often rooted in a desire to reduce dependency on pharmaceuticals that may dull emotional responses, cloud mental clarity, or inhibit personal growth. By embracing holistic approaches--such as nutritional therapy, mindfulness, exercise, and detoxification--individuals begin to reconnect with their bodies and minds in a more integrative way.

Do you feel constantly turned on, distracted, or mentally hijacked just walking through your day?

In this video, I break down the truth about male arousal in today’s hyper-sexualised world — and why so many men feel overstimulated around women, unable to relax or focus.

This isn’t about shame. It’s not about suppressing your sex drive.

Whether you're in the gym, walking through the city, or just trying to get things done — this video gives you a grounded way to stay in control, sharpen your presence, and stop leaking your attention.

If you're tired of being reactive and want to step into a more powerful version of yourself, this one is for you.

#442 - Overstimulated by Women? This Is How to Regain Control

'The sins of the tongue make up our most common accusion in Confession We're all guilty of misusing the tongue repeatedly, and human nature hasn't change since St. Peter's day. One of the greatest dangers then and one of the greatest dangers now is an unbridled tongue.' — Fr. John Brucciani

An Unbridled Tongue: Sermon on the Fifth Sunday after Pentecost

7-27-2025 - Self-Control

Feeling things is human; saying those feelings justify our actions is not Christian.  Join us to see how born-again believers have already been given what they need to handle their emotions rightly, while also realizing that we still have a part to play.  We can acknowledge our emotions are powerful yet not let them rule our lives.

It Held the Silence

Daily Devotions with Pastor John David Mull of Shepherd of The Valley on the three-year Lectionary Readings. Lectionary C, 17th Sunday After Pentecost.

2 Timothy 1:1-14

Proverbs 16:31-33 concludes the chapter by celebrating the peace and strength that come from self-control and complete trust in God’s sovereignty. These verses remind us that wisdom, patience, and restraint are greater marks of honor than power or conquest. The gray hair of the righteous is described as a crown of glory, symbolizing a life well-lived in faithfulness and godly discipline. In a world that prizes impulsiveness and control, this passage calls us to surrender our will to the Lord’s guidance, trusting that He governs every outcome and blesses those who walk humbly in His ways.

The Blessing of Self-Control and Trust in God - Proverbs 16:31-33

Daily Devotions and Weekly Messages from God's Word with John David Mull - Christ-follower, husband, and father.  Pastor of Shepherd of the Valley Church in West Des Moines, IA.

The Society of St. Pius X is an international priestly society of common life without vows, whose purpose is the priesthood and that which pertains to it.
 
The main goal of the Priestly Society of Saint Pius X is to preserve the Catholic faith in its fullness and purity, to teach its truths, and to diffuse its virtues. Authentic spiritual life, the sacraments, and the traditional liturgy are its primary means of bringing this life of grace to souls.
