Jeff Dawson's memoir is the story of a man's struggle to understand why he must endure one tragedy after another. A broken marriage, business failures and separation from his children are painful enough. Then the loss of his beloved father to cancer leaves him even sadder and more lonely. Unexpectedly, love comes again, but yet another tragic lesson lies in store for him.Not knowing where to turn, Jeff seeks divine solace. Without giving away what happens, I advise readers to prepare for an astonishing development. The experience imbues the author with a new sense of peace, finally allowing him to see where the "bus driver" (God) has been taking him on his long, humbling journey.This story is certainly worth the read. It's short and easily read within two or three hours. However, it needs some technical fixes. Paragraphs often run together, giving the reader no pause to consider important thought points. Despite this drawback, I recommend Jeff's touching memoir to anyone who has ever experienced tragedy and asked "Why". You will be inspired, as I was.
