About this ebook
Enigma, discovering the moments that form your life, does just that. Joshua Chambers is recalling a catharsis that occurred when he was sixteen. A tragic fire takes the lives of fourteen friends. When he realizes this was a defining moment, he searches for other life changing incidents that expanded his perspective and forced evolution from age two to fifty.
Joshua’s first memory is Mrs. Johnson, a large elderly woman who teaches him love and trust. When she passes, he does not understand but feels the loss. He witnesses grade school cruelty with Leona and develops a childhood crush on Cathy.
His friend, Patrick, reveals he is gay, leading to several intense discussions inside a gay bar with Chris. From his fraternity days with Sverne, building a polar slide, attending an African Baptism with its incredible conversations about God, Joshua can feel his body, mind and spirit falling more into balance.
Joshua talks with his friend, Valentino, who is dying from AIDS, and his own spirit is renewed. He suffers a brief stint in jail where he is surprised by the caliber of people around him. All these events lead to the ultimate triumph of the human spirit when Joshua dances in heaven as a conscious vibration.
The reader will find in each chapter the element that causes Josh to evolve and will seek out their own defining moments. Enigma portrays philosophy, spirituality and sexuality as they actually exist in the present day. It is for readers who like to think as they read.
