"A parable where a young driven professional learns to "Achieve without regret and sacrifice without envy." Arriving at a luxury resort, Colin Burke, a young professional, husband and father, is conflicted and unhappy. The three-day business retreat is billed as a reward for him and his colleagues but he is distracted by a basketball game, his son's season opener ... another game he'll miss. The business event unfolds unremarkably until a celebrated guest speaker and champion athlete awakens Colin's spirit. As the athlete electrifies the room, Colin remembers his own dreams and life goals and how they are not yet materializing. Desperate to think, the young professional escapes to a nearby coffee shop where along the way he helps an eccentric stranger avoid a serious accident. This chance encounter leads to a new friendship where one man pursues the future as the other works to repair the past. Over time Colin learns how to achieve world-class success and the ancient art of Placing Stones. Frustrations and angst slowly give way to realizing his true potential"--Publisher description.
