It is amazing to me, the stories you will hear if you just stand still. There is a story in everything-every piece of life, every fragment of time, every emotion, every breath. Life is a journey of trial and triumph, tragedy and beauty. Yet through it all there"s a thread of human existence, linking us all regardless of race, age, gender, or beliefs. Threads of Truth is a collection of five short stories that follows five unique characters-a weeping willow tree, an archeologist, a rocket scientist, an agnostic journalist, and a dying veteran-each trying to understand the presence of unnecessary tragedy; the perception of life as a journey filled with mysterious, unexpected twists; the role of faith; and ultimately what is truth. These stories will challenge readers to investigate the imperfections of mankind and discover the beautiful potential that exists. Pat Piccolo brings these very real and relatable characters to life through a compilation of short yet emotionally engaging tales.
