Waiting For A Name

About the Book

In most religious traditions, a protagonist is called into the wilderness for a period of tribulation and there receives a new name. This is my story of that time in my life. I AM Waiting For A Name. It begins with "Minor Works" - written in childhood. We then begin to Emulate those whom we admire (Allusions), finally blossoming as an individual in the right time (Kairas). The struggle to believe forces one to re-examine values and forget those illusions which seperate us from responsibility (a stone so heavy). We find that what we held dearest is little more than nothing, and we elude the plan God has for us.

About the Author

I am currently a student at Maryville College - although I don't know what my classification is. I am individualizing a major in Religion and Sociology, and I write in my journal to cope with life. I have been involved with Theater, where I never posted a Bio sketch because I despise how pretentious it sounds to refer to one's self in the third person. Jason dreams of one day being a rock star, but says he would settle for dying forgotten in a perfect world.
