The Interview
Hello Mr. Half Circle. Welcome to our show.
I know that you are more comfortable hosting
interviews than being the person interviewed.
But let's get right into our show, because there
are some very interesting things going on with you.
First, let's back up a bit to your first book entitled,
And The Tears Revived. Why this novel?

Thank you for having me. I am honored to be here.
This novel was totally created out of a relationship
that 'went South'. I was so very close to this young
lady, and was devastated when we broke up. Writing
about it was not only a great release for me, but it helped
me to get over it as best I could and move on. It forced
the question, 'what is one of the worst things that can happen
to a person and yet, like MacGyver, he manages to survive?'

So, you became a survivalist in the field of romantic relationships;
and as a result, also became one who could tell his own story to assist
others. You became 'the candle taken out of the drawer' to light up the room.

Principally speaking, such an experience taught me that regardless
of what we face in life, there is an alternative, a silver lining, a bridge
over troubled waters. It taught me that in some respects, we can
be stretched like rubber, and that we as mortals are blessed with
such strong elasticity. However, we never learn the level of our
breaking point if we are never challenged with 'the stretching'.
88888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888
So, you are saying that challenges are good, and we should welcome them.
888888888888888888888888888888888
It's not that we should be gluttons for punishment; but absolutely,
we should not think that we can get through life without bumps
and bruises. Therefore, we must not ignore, but be discerning enough
to know what situations to embrace and make them work for us.

Ladies and gentlemen, you have just heard a brief segment of a probing
conversation with Mr. Half Circle, author and motivational speaker.
