Gossamer Threads

Gossamer Threads is a memoir intertwining pieces written during the author's addiction and later, once sober, exposing some of the trails of living life on life's terms. Along with these old writings he offers today's reflection on his own web of insanity, love, lust, anger and struggle.

This offering is by no means a complete accounting of his life but simply a glimpse into the life a man growing into his adulthood.

Here is an offering, a gesture, to share that there is hope and healing after addiction. It shows that even in sobriety, successful and doing all the 'right things' bad things happen and that life is a daily challenge; along with joy and love there is pain and suffering. The challenge is to always strive for the light even when all one can see is darkness.

This is a book about hope and love and life draped in shades of gray with sparks of lust and anger.
