So now I am going to share the life of William Whiting Borden which is a stark contrast to Jim Morrison’s life but there are also striking similarities.

William Whiting Borden was an heir to the Borden Milk Empire and set to receive $50 Million dollars at age 25.

William led a privileged life. He was well travelled and attended the finest schools - graduating high school at age 16.

Soon thereafter, Borden dedicated his life to serving Christ and becoming a full time Christian Missionary.

Borden also promised to donate his entire $50 Million trust fund to charity.

He attended both Yale & Princeton.

*Per Wiki - “Borden had a charismatic personality, was sociable, athletic, and fun loving but also was an intense and hardworking natural leader. At Yale, he was elected president of Phi Beta Kappa and was active in several collegiate sports, especially wrestling and crew. He also became the master of his own sailing yacht. Borden refused to join a fraternity fearing "it might set him apart from the body of the class," but he was elected to the Elihu society.”

By all accounts, Borden led an exemplary life.

While on a missionary to Egypt Borden was suddenly struck with “spinal meningitis” and died at the young age of 25 - right before he was set to receive his $50 million dollar inheritance.

God revealed William Borden to me right as I was in the middle of researching Jim Morrison’s life.

I didn’t realize it at the time but I was subconsciously judging Jim Morrison in such a way like he would be here today if didn’t study demonology and do drugs and live a sinful life of drugs and rock & roll.

Borden was an upright moral Christian man and did everything right and still suffered the same fate of dying young.

I believe this was God’s way of correcting me and teaching me to not judge not even a little and to just love one another without judgment or bias no matter who they are or what their background is.✝️🕊️💜
