Just as in travel, reading books for self-discovery can shift our perspective, open our eyes to new worldviews, inspire us to make a change and perhaps most importantly, encourage a growth mindset that we can live our lives by every day.

This is a journal of self-discovery by a man I will refer to as "John." His journal covers a span of 89 days during which he struggles to come to grips with his wife's betrayal and subsequent exit from their marriage, their impending divorce, and his new role as a middle-aged single parent.
