    About this ebook

    *Note: SPARKS is prequel to the POINT-BLANK HEART-SLASHES Quintuplet; Short Story Poetry re Love, Deception, Compromise, Mediocrity, Reputation, Success, and Longing to Matter.*

    Yearning, longing, for love, for meaning, or for a new start, lead many to see need of a renewed mind, a purposeful relationship, migration to a fruitful location, or changed ambitions and goals in the race with one’s hourglass. Question: Do you still burn with that burden, message, or vision that if undertaken, will add value to many lives, and create for you a meaningful legacy? But might you be that Christian with a bad reputation who finds it difficult to do service for Christ? Trust it’s not you who was violated as a child to the effect of blame and casualty to your relationships and divine design? Do you find difficulty in loving unconditionally? You won’t happen to be a parent, who does not gladly permit your child/ren to live for JESUS, are you? And what exactly is your view of a materially successful Christian?

    “Sparks: Thoughts, Reputation, Love, and Longing to Matter” uses excerpts from “Point-Blank Heart-Slashes” to bring conscientious awareness and answers to these ponderings. Ideas will spark and decisions made as you grasp the importance and urgency of seizing time’s opportunities, toward your holistic self-actualization, and its resulting benefit to mankind.

    The blunt bottom-line point-blank truth: SPARKS will ignite you to START...to LOVE...and to DO and BE MORE, so your life will MATTER for all time.
