"The trees never judge others. They never turn you away. They do not ask for anything nor do they hold a grudge. They cause no harm to anyone or anything. They seem lifeless at first glance but their flowers bloom every spring. It is said that they can not communicate, but sit in front of one long enough and you feel you are not alone. Sit a little longer and they may start to speak to you."

Confessions of the Damaged is a healing process. It is a continuous narrative but each chapter is meant to be read as a short story. The story is enjoyed best if each chapter is read slowly, multiple times. If it brings up your own memories or feelings, you can sit with those before continuing. Take your time with it.
