Welcome Chuck Jackson with Guilt–My Companion #newrelease #memoir #truelife

Posted on July 10, 2018 by Mae Clair

Today, I’m welcoming a brand new guest to my blog. Chuck Jackson is here with his latest release, Guilt—My Companion. I hope you’ll make Chuck feel welcome, and take a moment to check out his book. Chuck is always popping in around the blogosphere, supporting others with comments and likes on their posts. I thought it was time he got some comment luv of his own, and—BREAKING NEWS—Chuck has just offered his book for FREE. Follow the link at the end of this post!

Book Blurb:
Chuck Jackson’s Guilt—My Companion is a passionate and true story of personal struggle when faced with society’s ignorance and prejudice. As a young adult, we follow his personal struggles for self-identity and acceptance. The narrative is the chapters of his life that led to an unintended destination. For him, Guilt was his companion who lay in waiting to rob him of personal pleasure.

When tragedy strikes, he turns to his dysfunctional family for support only to find confrontation. Their hostility creates a battle to survive grief and depression. With each episode, he finds the inner strength to conquer his companion Guilt. Through it all, it is a Journey of Healing.

Recent Book Review:
The book stayed true to the title. I found it gripping and, in many cases, difficult to comprehend the cruelty imposed upon the author. The epilogue best describes the outcome: (1) Healing involved a desire to change the habit of carrying baggage, and (2) professional help. The author, Denis Waitley, wrote that “Happiness cannot be traveled to, owned, earned, worn or consumed. Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace, and gratitude.” I believe that the author’s journey possessed all of these. Without grace, he would not have made the remarkable life he has lived. Without love, he couldn’t fight against the emotional abuse of hate. Without gratitude, he couldn’t have written his books. This book is for all of us; for the times we’ve allowed ourselves to wallow in the darkness of resentment and anger, guilt, and subsequent depression. By sharing this journey, the author opened up his heart with love, grace, and gratitude and gave us this book.

Mae, it’s interesting to meet and read about Chuck and his latest book on your blog. Chuck, I think this is a title that will resonate with many – guilt is the unwelcome companion in so many of our lives – I wonder if it is one we can ever leave behind? I am intrigued by your book and this is one I want to read. Wishing you good fortune with your writing and your books.
