His anguish is too much to bear. But when he reconnects with a bright spark from his youth, can he find his way back to hope?

Jake Clark is fighting a losing battle against depression. And with personal tragedy clawing at his fraying resilience, he’s devastated by the impossible task of saving his ailing toy company from bankruptcy. So, on a flight to an industry convention, he’s one swig away from taking a lethal dose of pills… until he looks up and sees Samantha, his first love, standing in the aisle, looking down at him.

Eager to catch up after years apart, Sam shoves Jake into the airplane’s lavatory as they ride out extreme turbulence, bouncing together in close quarters for the rest of the flight. The spark between these childhood sweethearts immediately rekindles and Sam would dump her fiancé in a flash for her first love, Jake, until she sees his wedding ring, and confirmation that he loves his wife.

About Featured Book: EPICURUS and THE PLEASANT LIFE: A Philosophy of Nature Kindle Edition– November 30, 2022 – Revised and Expanded 2nd Edition by Haris Dimitriadis

This book seeks to reintroduce pleasure as our innate guide to living a healthy and happy life—a simple yet powerful assertion based on empirical data, which stands up to the strictest scrutiny.

Along this journey, we will explore evidence throughout the historical evolution of philosophy up to the time of Epicurus, the ancient Greek philosopher who laid the foundations for a philosophy of nature. More specifically, it’s the only philosophy that distinguishes pleasure as the inherent human guide to a healthy and happy life.

Our multiscreen, one-click modern society is often accused of hedonism, yet this perception is contradicted by a widespread obsession with pain. Of course, pain relief and pain control are noteworthy themes, yet it remains remarkable that a minority seeks to understand pleasure and its role in life. Despite its significance, very few have endeavored to recognize and present guidelines based on scientific evidence that pleasure promotes health and happiness.

Contemporary society is characterized by a denial and fear of pleasure. This behavior is usually unconscious and always difficult to overcome. In many ways, we are all influenced and sometimes even consciously trained to resist pleasure.

This is taught to us by parents, medical professionals, educators, religious leaders, and other authority figures. Furthermore, the enemy is also often found within. Most of us harbor self-destructive tendencies which lead us to deny ourselves pleasure for a variety of reasons.

For many, healthy living hinges on deprivation. Aspirations to have a healthy body, for example, often lead to rigorous, rigid diets which are only effective for the moment they are followed. Meals become a source of measured pain in anticipation of a successful outcome that can never be extricated from denial and deficit. Contrasted with a life guided by pleasure, little (if any) resemblance is perceived. When one is motivated by pleasure, satisfaction, and fulfillment are emphasized rather than abstinence and deprivation.
