Looking through my library of well intended unread books that I purchase over many weeks, I was looking for my next piece of literature genius.
 I final stopped at a book, picked it, and with earnest this would be the one I will enjoy.  Since purchasing it 9 months ago at a conference I have passed by it countless time saying "not this time my dear friend".
Though this particular season of my life was screaming out to me, read me!, digest my words of encouragement and insight, my experiences and directions.
So I shall, so I shall
THE JOURNY OF DESIRE
There is a secret set within each of  our hearts.  Its often goes unnoticed, we rarely can put words to it, and yet it guides us throughout the days of our lives.  The secret remains hidden for the most part in our deepest selves.  It is the desire for life as it was meant to be.  Isn't there a life you have been searching for all of your days?  You may not be aware of your search, and there are times when you seem to have abandoned looking altogether.  But again and again it returns to us, this yearning that cries out for the life we prize.  Its elusive, to be sure.  It seems to come and go at will.  Season may pass until it surfaces again.  And though it seems to taunt us, and may at times cause us great pain, we know when it returns that it is priceless.  For if we could recover this desire, unearth it from beneath all other distractions, and embrace it as our deepest treasure, we would discover the secret of our existences. -John Eldredge-    

Somewhere in the forward I was expecting to read" written for the direction and encouragement of my dearest and closest friend Frank who I know will benefit greatly by the words I have fitted and designed for him and him only."
