    About this ebook

    Take this continued journey with Darien, an eighteen-year old, as he breaks away from the restrictions of family and steps onto a path shaped by his past, one that leads him down into very dark places as he struggles to both hide from himself and find himself. Follow him through his early adult years as a private, inner war plunges him into addiction. Witness the living of a life directed by the outside world, a life seemingly rescued from it for brief moments by a spirit guide named Sundeep — a friend, protector, and teacher who has been with Darien since before he was born. Experience, firsthand, Darien’s decent as he approaches a point of no return. “Steven Howard shares a powerful odyssey of the universal struggle to awaken to the Spirit within.” — Gary Simmons, Th.D. Author of “The I of the Storm: Embracing Conflict, Creating Peace;” “The Soul’s Conspiracy: Master Conflict, Transform Your Life;” and co-founder of the Q Process™.

    Author

    Steven Howard

    Steven Howard has a master’s degree from the school of hard knocks---having journeyed through despair and addiction into recovery. His personal, inner journey took him through rejections, failures and a dark, circuitous route as he sought to discover the Truth. Unknowingly guided by a Divine Force, the way was made clear through the support of a 12-step recovery program, years of therapy and yet more years as a student of metaphysical teachings. He has a master’s in Counseling psychology and over forty years as a student and teacher of metaphysical teachings. He lives with his wife, Paula, in Central Florida.
