Description
http: //www.EBrooksAndrews.com THE LONGEST JOURNEY Volume 3 of 3 "Balancing on Barbed Wire" Series Bonus: "Reflections" Poetry - Preview Edition Full color historical and family heirloom photoalbums by Bestselling author, E. Brooks Andrews In this third book the author invites the reader on a journey through stages of life. Each stage has challenges to address. But there are choices, positive ones we can make that bring us hope and a chance to recreate a life never lived. The author becomes introspective and writes about lessons learned and introduces Klute and Lobelia through a short allegory rich with spiritual truth. He writes of his own spiritual journey and the realization that faith cannot be quantified. Faith is not a matter of rules and regulations but a willingness to let go and live in the question despite not having all the answers. Much has been written about the Minidoka internment camp in detail, not only in the Balancing On Barbed Wire series, but in many other publications. The last section in book three is a series of four short poems written by the author. Denying superfluous and superficial verbiage, four scenes evoke the stark reality of life in a foreign land. The book ends with a poignant tribute to his parents. -------------------- About The Author: ABOUT THE AUTHOR: E.
