3 A.M. Stories (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798986156217)

The proverbial quote "it's always darkest before the dawn" implies there is the anticipation of
good things approaching. The toughest position is a dual layer - being in the darkest times and
getting through the darkest time.

We are more than creatures who are merely physical beings wandering the earth. We are more
than a robotic in nature, where everyone is the same and predictable. We have a wide range of
emotions based on circumstances and interactions.

Everyone struggles at a personal level, as well as at social levels. Some people hide their
personal struggles for a variety of reasons. Some remain in the darkest recesses of those
struggles for a long period of time - some never recover.

So often life is described as a roller coaster ride, or having ups and downs, or hills and valleys.
There's the mountain top feeling of being on top of the world, but then there's the struggles of
going through the low times - the tormenting defeat.

Even during the tough times, there are glimpses of hope. There is nothing wrong with going
through tough times - it's okay not be okay, it's just not okay to stay there.

There are two things that are hard to admit when going through tough times:

1. being able to recognize the tough time and recognizing that others have also journeyed through difficult times
2. being able to know when help is needed, then seeking help in the suitable places and with the appropriate people.

This collection of poetry demonstrates that struggles exist, while recognizing those glimmers of
hope, and understanding the dawning of good things yet to come is at hand.
