This anthology is one of personal reflection, and in it I hope you may find areas and pieces of which you can somewhat relate to.

The first chapter (Reflection) is one of great reflection about me, my social circles, feelings, love, care, hurting and suffering. What parts of me are so persistent in this life, though dark, its important to recognise these parts rather than let them seethe, fester and bleed without any recognition, continuing until you let them free.

The second chapter (Trials) is reflective still, but looking back on specific memories and general feelings, of the trials I've faced and the feelings I've felt. While the third chapter is finding meaning in the suffering that so often is life, but nevertheless I survive and make it by.

Continuing on, nevertheless, despite untold levels of strife. Somehow I'm getting by. Not only getting by, but still finding occasional beautiful oases of the beauty that is life.
