Synopsis

Where is your destiny? What will you find when you get there? If you died today, what would be your legacy? Would anyone remember you and why? Join Bill Solomon as he begins the journey of his life.

"Stand at the crossroads and look; ask for the ancient paths, ask where the good way is, and walk in it, and you will find rest for your soul ..."

This fiction book is written in an allegory fashion. Each one of us travels a path in life to our own destiny. It is a choice we must make and there is a reality at the end. In fact, even if we choose not to make a choice, we will in the end, have made one.

There are many voices in the wind and the advice from each is just as diverse. The truth, however remains long after the passing of the storm. It then appears plain and simple, even as the rainbow high above. Let the journey begin ...

About this title

From the Author:

In early 1992, I was staying with some friends on the western slope of the Rockies in Montrose, Colorado. It was my second trip to Colorado and I was totally caught up in it's beauty and majesty. Almost on a daily basis I would take my guitar down to the nearest park where I could see a clear view of the San Juan mountains in the distance. I wrote a few songs from this park, a few like, Destiny, Identity, Living On The Edge among others, but I also began to see a vision unfold before me. I immediately began to draw it out and it later developed into an art print, and became the basis for this, my first book. It would take me a few more years to develop the art print fully and complete the writing of this book.

This book is an allegory of the vision I saw during this time in the mountains. From the mountaintop, the character in this story is able to see the whole picture. It is his journey that leads to the discovery of the paths he sees far down below in the distance. From his vantage point, he can see all of the pitfalls along each way and the destiny, or end of each path. Join Bill on his adventure and discovery of a lifetime. It will change your life...

At some point, we will be printing the large prints of the artwork that goes along with this story. It is a timeless piece that will span generations. Visit my website for more info: DestinyPathOfLife.com

About the Author:

Joseph James grew up in a small town in South Central Texas, USA in the sixties. He says he was fortunate to grow up in the country, because it helped him overcome the absence of his father. His dad left his mother at the age of three. Sometimes, he would walk for hours at a time as a child through the countryside in order to find peace and tranquility. He observed the animals in the wild and took note of how they lived and interacted. He also learned first hand about plants, farming, and ranching. It was during this time that He came to realize the Lord was real.

Later in life, he would meditate on these precious times to help encourage himself, especially when living in the large cities of San Antonio and Dallas. He now lives in Colorado Springs, Colorado with his wonderful wife and son where he can look out of the window every morning to the beautiful mountains and see the majesty of the Lord. He is a passionate writer, songwriter, singer, and artist. He loves to create things and write stories that can help encourage others. He also writes in his blog on his DestinyPathOfLife.com when he can. He understands what it is like to live in torn family relationships. During certain times in his life, he has had to lean totally on the Lord to help him make it through each day. He speaks, sings and writes directly from His relationship with the Lord and all of his experiences.

It is our hope that this book will help and encourage you in some way. Our goal is to help others, to encourage them and to help them to find their destiny. There are several tools available on the Destiny web site. There is a questionnaire available to help determine one's talents and gifts. There are also art prints, books, music, and a flash player with some of Joseph's songs.

May your life be blessed by the Lord.
