The Ole Man

Episodes of the Heart

This book is a about a young boy growing up under the influences of Mother Nature. With his father as the teacher, the boy had many experiences hunting and fishing that became the foundation of his indivduality. Each episode is based on a true story that became a lesson to the boy and aroused in him a search for the sense and significance of his life. Some of the episodes are very profound. As a result of his outdoor exploits, there was formed in him the desire to seek out others who could help him understand the states of concsiousness he experienced during these times. As he grew older he began to realize that these episodes were like a great teaching, the essence of which all humans could share if they opened themselves up to Mother Nature. These stories will penetrate the readers heart and reveal a spiritual epiphany that could affect their life
