The Calm After the Storm
I certainly appreciate the sympathy and empathy provided by everyone in response to the story in my book. I want to tell everyone how much I appreciate this. And I also want to say that throughout the storm, we managed to keep it all in perspective. And I would like to take this moment to thank Maria for coming back to my life and into my son’s life, and accepting us to be a part of her life. I’m shitty when it comes to writing matters that are so close to my heart, so I will borrow from Christine McVie to tell Maria how I feel.
For you, there’ll be no more crying,
For you, the sun will be shining,
And I feel that when I’m with you,
Its alright, I know its right
To you, I’ll give the world
To you, I’ll never be cold
cause I feel that when I’m with you,
Its alright, I know its right.
And the songbirds are singing,
Like they know the score,
And I love you, I love you, I love you,
Like never before.
And I wish you all the love in the world,
But most of all, I wish it from myself.
And the songbirds keep singing,
Like they know the score,
And I love you, I love you, I love you,
Like never before, like never before.
Thank you Christine for putting it into words so many years ago what I wanted to say to Maria.

One of the fast books I have read on my Kindle. I congratulate you for having made it through such a rotten mess. This is the kind of story that keeps readers, myself included, wondering if there will be a sequel? Is the hyena still in jail? Did your ex wife eventually get help with her addiction?
Mr. Braswell, I am so sorry for the horrific events you had to endure. I’m also amazed at the courage and resilience you found within yourself when many others would have just given up. Myself- I plan on emulating your shining example when I feel overwhelmed in my own life.
I agree with William’s comment- how about a sequel? I want to be assured of your hard-won victories, and I want to know that the guilty, selfish ones are receiving their just rewards.
