Five Thousand Urgently Pointless Distractions

Researchers report that the average American processes ten thousand bits of information a day, including at least five thousand urgently pointless distractions. In this story of mid-life crisis, information is processed, but taken with a grain of depression. The main character loses his ability to sleep, his appetite for life, and his spirituality, until he comes face to face with his Divine Purpose. He is stunned by its simplicity, and wonders why he did not discover the solutions previously. His journey transports him on a spiritual odyssey from his bedroom on a rainy San Francisco night, through his childhood in Harlem, to his marriage to the woman of his dreams and the tragedy which shatters his life. This is the story of one man coming to terms with his Divine Purpose and discovering true love in an endless sea of distractions.
