Positive Light is the spiritual energy within us all. Stand in a positive light and illuminate the way forward for yourself and for others.

The Opening sentence from my semi-autobiographical novella Positive Light. Today I am posting excerpts from the first five pages.

Silence your doubts and uncertainty and connect to the all-encompassing being. Share in ancestral wonderment whenever. Look up at the stars with hope knowing we are not alone in the incredible vastness. Look into the eyes of a newborn child and glimpse the reflection of our own origins.

After the stinging torment of his divorce subsided, Samuel would often take his daughters to the beach. On one day the three of them had flown kites and dug sandcastles all morning. That joyous day Margaret his youngest daughter roared with laughter when a wave knocked her off her feet.
