Publisher's Synopsis
Michael Wilks began writing poetry on napkins and scraps of paper as a teenager. Over the next two decades, he continued writing, but with periods of dormancy, while pursuing degrees in mathematics and philosophy.Ultimately, he found his passion in teaching, and today, still enjoys his job, even in his third decade of teaching math to young minds.As he does this, his thoughts continue to flow from ink to paper. When Michael's thoughts flow from ink to paper, he explores pain and triumph from his own experiences. He will tell you that some understanding comes from writing, but not always.Life is never still. Lessons are never learned but being learned. In one moment of clarity, Michael formed the plan for this book and upon reviewing the completed work embarked on the pursuit of a lifelong dream.Seeing his words in print and sharing his private thoughts left him to wonder if anyone reading them would find meaning in life as he did.
