Life on the Surface: Coming Up Higher

LIFE ON THE SURFACE IS A COLLECTION OF ORIGINAL THOUGHTS AND INSIGHTS OF AN AFRICAN-AMERICAN ON BLACK AND WHITE RACE RELATIONS IN A UNIVERSAL SPIRITUAL-COSMIC CONTEXT. IT IS BUILT AROUND TWO MAIN THEMES: THE INNER MAN OF THE HEART AND THE INNER MEANING OF THE COLOR BLACK AS IT RELATES TO PEOPLE OF AFRICAN ANCESTRY. THE BOOK IS AN EFFORT TO STIMULATE AND FEED THE SPIRITUAL INTEREST OF DISSATISFIED READERS WHO ARE SEARCHING FOR A NEW LEVEL OF LIBERATION FROM THE MATERIAL AND RACIAL CONSTRAINTS OF LIFE IN A VALUES CONFLICTED WORLD, READERS FOR WHOM TRADITIONAL TEACHINGS NO LONGER SEEM TO WORK. IT IS NOT OFFERED AS A FORMULA FOR SUCCESS BUT AS A POTENTIALLY CREATIVE TAKE OFF POINT FOR ANY ONE LOOKING FOR A REASONABLE WAY OUT AND UP THAT MAKES SENSE FOR THEM MATERIALLY, MENTALLY, EMOTIONALLY, AND SPIRITUALLY, ANY ONE WHO RECOGNIZES THAT LIFE IN THE FINAL ANALYSIS IS WHAT WE MAKE IT
