Synopsis
At thirty-one years of age, Hakim had walked through the raging fires and cooled himself off with premium gasoline. Depression and anxiety had formed a pact with each relationship he brought himself into, creating a force that he could not withstand. Revealing his past to his therapist, he endeavored to find the reasons for why he continues to suffer. In order to create a bright future, he had to clear out the fog that surrounded him. His tales are told with details of each woman he courted, recalling upon the past to define reality. Elizabeth, his therapist, assists him in finding a solution and shares her wisdom to walk a new path. With each story, Hakim digs himself deeper, revealing his darkest thoughts that consume his soul. He eagerly yearns for answers, wanting to escape for the moment rather than to run free and wide. He ends the stories of painful encounters with a plan. As he replays the past, he finds his way out of an entangled mind and resides with peace. The journey may have been too harsh to overcome, but those who hold tightly onto hope will find their way. For every entrance, there is an exit, even if it means breaking down a wall or two.

Book Excerpt

The Heartest One

“If you think I’m going to cop out, you’re wrong,” he said to them with a serious face. “My passion in life is teaching and this is my calling. It’s not a coincidence that I am starting my career here. I’m here for a reason and not a season.” These words seemed to strike interest in some students as he saw some of them smile at the rhyme. “I’ve never been a quitter and I’m not about to start. No sir, not today and not this year. If you think you can get me to leave, try it. I bet you’ll fail.”

The kids were quiet and looked around the room at each other. On the inside, it seemed like their emotions were stirred up. Hakim always felt a natural connection to teaching as he had many life lessons he could share. He always wanted others to learn from him and did not hesitate to tell stories. The kids were impressed, but it would still take more effort to gain their trust.
