Excerpt
As I walked out of town with my duffel on my back, I imagined to myself, how did I get here? I lost my job, my wife, along with my dog almost coincidentally. Did I possess a sign on my back that said kick me until I cannot get up? Whoever had placed a mark on this old man, did not know me very well at all! I was hurting, and God knows I wanted to drown in my misery at least for another month or two, but I was the only one who could pull me up from that circumstance. Looking back on the events of that morning, I wondered if I had packed all that I needed. I grabbed my old Army duffle bag, throwing in a few changes of clothes, a flashlight, some food, a hunting knife, and a wool blanket. I believed that would be all I needed. If I did not have it, I believed the good Lord would provide it for me, should he be looking down on me. I was feeling a little sorry for myself.
