Jordan Palmer on wearing masks in public

I don’t understand this public defiance about a simple mask. The mask is to protect others, not you. Lots of people pretend to be Christian, but they don’t live the life, if they did, COVID-19 would be in-check. A mask isn’t a difficult thing. 

The second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ No other commandment is greater than these.” - Mark 12:31

Col. Jordan Palmer on being a gay teenager in Kentucky

When it sunk in that being gay could get you beat or put on the street, I realized that I had to listen to MY voice, MY soul. Today, it saddens me that too many people listen to the noise of the world, instead of themselves. I broke every rule and I'm proud of it because I did it in a positive manner, with no ill will for anyone. ❤️ I never bothered with who hated me as a result, even when that person turned out to be my Dad. 🤷‍♂️ I purged myself of what others thought of me when I was a child. The Creator was with me the entire time. ✝️ It brings tears to my eyes when I see people hung up on what others think of them. 😢

No one can make you "feel" something about yourself unless you give them that power. No one can stop you except you. 😘 No matter what happens, keep going.

Our differences

We are all basically the same, but our differences make us susceptible to definition rather than our similarities because "people see what they want to see." Release the rights and the wrongs of your life; forgive yourself and forgive others.... never permit yourself to follow the impulses of fear, anger, or revenue. Be with me, your friends, your family, etc. in the present moment..... once it has passed, it will never come again. Always remember that your life is limited, so make the best of it.

Col. Jordan Palmer says to make it epic

When everything is said and done, the only thing to do is move forward in a positive direction. Surround yourself with positive energy and make the moves you need to be happy. People are going to take the role of God into their own hands and judge you anyway, so make it epic..... make it worth gossiping about.

History has shown that I typically take the path of most resistance, but I never bent my knee to injustice, ran from someone in need, or gave a second thought as to how others would judge me.

Even when I bite off more than I could chew, I took the blows and continued forward. Make sure you are strong enough to do the same, and remember, life is only rewarding when you realize your true potential and the beautify of your own dreams. So again, make it epic!

Personal message from Jordan Palmer

This past week has literally drained every ounce of energy I have on a daily basis. Each has been demanding both mentally and physically. I wish I could respond to all of your emails individually, but I simply do not currently have the time (but I will). In the interim, I pray you will accept this as my gratitude and love to all of you.

I will continue to use every ounce of time and energy to accomplish my goals. However, I would not be able to do this without your support and I have no way to repay it, except with love, loyalty, humility, and eternal gratitude. I will find the time eventually to respond to all of you, I never forget anything. You all bring something special to my life, I hope I add something special to yours as well.

Col. Jordan Palmer gives personal update

To those who have taken advantage of me and/or tried to tear me down, just remember, I'm a Leslie County Bowling / Begley, I'm Jordan Palmer (legally, Jordan Bowling Palmer). I may be bruised but I am not broken.
My message is that I forgive you, but I'm simply not in the mood to indulge you anymore.

When I decide I want something I make it happen. I have goals and now that this is behind me, I am going full speed ahead.

My dream of the future

I pray that one day we will live on a planet where no one will condemned because of their sexual orientation, gender identity, gender, the color of their skin, nor any other "label" or "characteristic" used to separate or place judgement on innocent people by society. Perhaps 2014 will bring us closer to that goal in the hearts and minds of everyone. To obtain this goal however we will also have to work on ourselves.

As I have stated before:
