Overview

Come along on this humorous (but not overly funny) trip through David’s psyche, fears, phobias, and healing. Find answers to life’s big questions—or at least a general idea of where to search for those answers. This story doesn’t guarantee actual wisdom, but some pretty helpful stuff is hidden in these electrons. Ereaders may or may not learn techniques for coping with today’s amped-up culture, angry Facebook friends, crazy political relatives, hysterical bosses, and children with schedules busier than most adults in the 1970s. He examines and dissects fears and develops techniques for improving physical, psychological, financial and emotional health.

The result of David’s sabbatical of the mind was peace, new direction, and a successful return to work. While no one can promise that others will experience the same results from taking a sabbatical, readers have a very good chance of smiling, laughing, and otherwise chortling several times as they navigate this adventure.
