Following tragedy, Jeremiah leaves New Orleans and embarks on a frequently painful and action-filled journey, hoping to escape his sense of loss and recover his tormented soul. Journey takes Jeremiah through towns filled with interesting and sometimes humorous characters, who become a part of his awakening experience. There is a place from which we all have come. There is also a place to which we all will go. We cannot change where we came from, but we can influence where we go. The means to make this change is called "journey." Many events and circumstances attempt to affect the outcome, but ultimately, we are responsible for our own journey. We travel the road, not knowing what lies before us, but we travel with the strength and spirit to write the ending. The goal is not the earth's treasures. The goal is finding our meaning and giving back to the life we were given.
Mike Bradley Knihy
