A life's path is not always vanilla. Like a good painting, a life is often veiled in mystery. But unlike a well-executed piece of art, a life is not subjective, regardless of how it is perceived in the eyes of a viewer on the outside, looking in. In Scarlet, Circles, and Dreams, the life experiences of Rod Engel are full of unpredictable twists and turns. His story pieces together the puzzle of his artistic journey, health struggles, and unexpected spiritual quest. The story is a unique and entertaining look into the mind of an artist caught between his passion-turned-obsession and the transcendent purpose of his life. Rod's pilgrimage is far from mundane. It reveals the shadowy side streets he is taken down as his health is negatively impacted by his craft. It is in these alleyways that the darkness of obsession collides with an intriguing expression of light, a truth that provides the strength and will to fight to see another day, a day that dawns with a renewed conviction for life's highest priority-love. Sit back and enjoy the ride through the pages as the author journeys his way home.
