A conjuncture is the combination of multiple events or circumstances. This book is a key conjuncture in the author’s life. It was: A book within the author waiting to be written, the use of inspiration from his father’s sermons, fulfillment of a need to help others, a traumatic event (Hurricane Katrina), and a key insight. That key insight resulted from answering a question. Why do the answers to life’s struggles have to be so complicated? The author’s answer is that in many cases it does not have to be so complicated. The author uses a collection of one hundred allegories or parables to help the reader visualize answers to life’s problems. There are no secrets to dealing with some of life’s problems.

The answers to our life struggles is like the air we breathe. They are all around us. What air are you breathing?
