The Yearn encourages readers to probe their sense of identity  in a confounding era of doubt.  By building a base of self-awareness, we equip ourselves  to adapt to uncertainty.
The Yearn is a compendium of questions and notes to a series of intriguing questions, some profound, some personal and some quirky, about the lessons individuals have learned that deepen their understanding of what the French call 'la condition humaine.'
 
Indications of the extraordinariness of the moment are everywhere. You might call it a transformative moment. In an era of Covid-disruption and attacks on truthiness, the idea of The Yearn is to show the triumph of what might be called ordinary or personal wisdom.  
 
The pandemic has led us to question many of society's conventions. Being 'real' is increasingly revered in a Covid-wacked world that longs for transparency and disclosure. Social networking sites are designed to encourage shallow interactions but The Yearn plays to the search to find meaning, connection and wisdom in our individual stories.

Memoirs of A Healer/Clinical Social Worker: Autobiography of Bruce Whealton by BruceWhealton
82 parts Complete
A healer. A survivor. A victim of profound injustice. How does someone who has dedicated their life to helping others find the strength to heal themselves after losing everything? In December 2019, I woke up in a psychiatric hospital following a suicide attempt. A simple conversation with another patient sparked a shift within me-a glimmer of clarity that would change the course of my life. But how did I end up there? What devastation could drive a loving spouse, a therapist, and a lifelong survivor to the edge of despair? This book unravels the journey that led me to that breaking point and how I found the strength to keep living. My story is one of triumph and tragedy-of overcoming paralyzing shyness and social anxiety to become a psychotherapist, only to have my life shattered by unimaginable injustice. Between 2000 and 2006, I lost everything I had built: my home, my career, my community, and the love that once gave my life meaning. The destruction was sudden, like a meteor crashing down, and the aftermath left me in ruins. Worse still, the world condemned me as a villain when I was only ever a victim. But this is not just a story of loss. It is a story of survival, of how I faced the darkness and chose to keep living. It is a testament to how love, hope, and the power of connection can guide us through even the longest night. Through this memoir, I share not only my pain but also my triumphs-the moments of joy, love, and meaning that kept me fighting for life. I write this book for anyone who has ever felt unseen, unheard, or unjustly condemned. I write it to show that healing is possible, that our stories matter, and that no matter how broken we feel, there is always a path forward. This is my story. But it is also a story of hope-for you, for me, and for anyone who has ever longed for justice, healing, and love.

A man about to confront his personal guilt and questioning his faith towards God to a dying priest. A woman in the process of closure and forgiveness talks to the spirit and ashes of her dead loved one swirling in the air. An old giant fur creature spends his final days with the children he loves in the woods of Hinaizu. Hinaizu, with its many secrets and history to unravel in various stories. A love story about two spirits born in the same sex bodies, oblivious to finding themselves back in another life as soulmates to be married and bound for each other. A strange man from the older era converses to someone regarding humanity and its spirit despite the age of technology. An astronaut sets his course of destination to a nearby planet where he will give humanity hope to once again be a part of life itself. These tales of loneliness, isolation, longing, grief; bittersweet love and hope; perseverance and care are like feelings buried beneath the ocean of tears and of water lapping across the shoreline in the quietness of the setting sun soon turning into night that reveals the darkness that we hide within ourselves. Personal, provocative and passionate, I've Felt It: Stories is a work that elevates the need of human connection in the times of where we thought everything is lost in time's embrace yet through the tunnel of darkness that we go through in our lives, there is sometimes a trace of hope to be found in this world of troubling times.

I always loved that phrase -food for thought- and use it a lot, sometimes i even hashtag my posts with it. So i thought, it was very suitable and very me thing, to use it, as a title, for this book. This book contains, my personal story, what bothers me, what i want to talk about, what i need to let go. It would be a little bit, like blog posts, but in the form of a book. I hope you like it. :)
