My character was a strong-willed individual; he faced many obstacles along the way. Bo’s problem with drugs after the Vietnam War would lead him to recovery, and relapse several times. He managed to stay clean for many years and live a productive life, until AIDS entered his world. Once he delivered the news of contracting AIDS, the daily struggle with the disease, co workers, and a once loving and supportive family began. He was almost left isolated, punished, and desolate by the people he needed most (family). You would think my characters biggest concern would be AIDS, it wasn´t, it was findng peace within. However with the love of his best friend Annie and some true friends, his life became good again. Living with AIDS guided Bo into finding something so much deeper within himself and took him on a journey to expedite the process of finding true peace. We never know what GOD has in store for us that can make us humble and make us better people, even though it may start out painful, confusing, unfair or controversial. As the saying goes, GOD closes doors no man can close and opens doors no man can open.My intended audience is for everyone. This book is for families who have turned their backs on their loved ones suffering with disease, mental illness or addiction. But most importantly, anyone who is spending too much time on what can´t be changed, but what can be changed in order to complete the journey of attaining whatever glimmer of peace they may attain.Although my view is fiction, I was driven personally to find the catalyst for my own inner peace. Reality says there’s always going to be sickness, death, and despair. For we know we don´t live in a perfect world. However, there is always a desire to find peace of mind within one’s self. It doesn’t matter if we are AIDS patients, single mothers, fighting addiction or just people dealing with turmoil’s life can bring. If we can manage to achieve that inner peace, then we are truly ble
