This is the story of a life that took an unexpected turn, leading to priceless treasures and profound awakenings. George Dexton's journey begins with the decision to emigrate to a distant land, followed by the commitments of marriage, raising a family, and starting a new business. As he battles for success and recognition, George's marriage collapses, plunging him into a period of overindulgence and recklessness that eventually leads to the downfall of his business.In the aftermath, an unexpected mystical experience brings confusion, spiraling George into depression and a deep philosophical quest. He explores the unknown depths of his mind, searching for meaning and freedom from what feels like a futile existence. Reluctantly pushing forward, he reaches a point of no return, still seeking a sense of purpose in a world that seems blind to his struggles.
