Description
How do you turn an accidental life into an authentic one? How do you find the place where you fit in?
In Paul Anthony's memoir, he takes readers on a journey of self-discovery and belonging as he navigates the challenges of a fractured relationship with his mother. The wall that blocked their maternal bond in time also rose up between him and others in his life - at home, school, work, and with friends and lovers. Desperate to find a way to surmount that wall and resolve the struggle in his heart between the need to love and the hatred ignited by his mother's rejection, Paul embarks on a quest for meaning and relief that leads him to steamy jungles, frozen mountains, and even the depths of his darkest dreams.
As he searches for answers, Paul faces complex and emotional challenges, from dealing with the emotional trauma of his past to navigating the complexities of relationships and the search for true belonging. Through it all, he struggles to find the key to unlocking the mystery of himself and discovering who he truly is. But even as he finally discovers the key, he must question whether he has what it takes to use it and truly transform his accidental life into an authentic one.
With raw and honest storytelling, Paul Anthony's memoir is an emotional and thought-provoking read that will resonate with anyone who has ever struggled to find their place in the world. So, if you're ready to discover one man's pursuit of meaning and relief,
