Über Seminal Moments
Along the road of life, there can be many adventures. They can be real or imagined or personal or hearsay, and the next one may be just over the hill. Usually when these exceptional experiences are recalled, they are viewed as just another life occurrence with no further meaning. But sometimes, if the event was memorable, it has meaning thats more significant than the event itself.
The incident was decisive and pivotal, bringing about a life-changing state of affairs that can be revealed in retrospect. Such incidences can suggest stories that show us the way we are.
In the story The Blue Hole, young Jefferys spontaneous and dramatic action unintentionally brought about his first sense of identity. In A New Day, Jim didnt realize his transitory situation as he boarded the bus, but a big event was unfoldinghe was losing his boyhood. And in Seminal Moments, Bill only realized twenty years after the fact what happened to launch his successful career.
These and other stories in the book are all based on special encounters, reflecting life in passing.
