When Calhoun Mane searched for classmates on his social media, he discovered many reasons to reconnect with his past. Many of these guys and gals had played important roles in his childhood. The years flew by quickly for Calhoun, and aging became the bridge to many new identities. Friendships had always been a special way for caring people to connect. Many of these folks had once housed Calhoun and fed him. He remembered where the love came from and now hoped that his success made everyone proud.

 

A significant part of new beginnings was Calhoun’s chance to connect with meaningful new friends. Social media had become his outlet for inviting peers to engage with the literature he wrote and published. The greatest praise came from a readership that valued the soulfulness he infused into every chapter. People from his past lived strongly within the story, showing such emotional bonds to the collective. Love among these individuals was a remembrance Calhoun had promised to express from his earliest years. 

 

A redemptive set of qualities shared in Calhoun’s book teaches lessons about a virtuous life, but only after he embraced his sinful past. Much of what he experienced created the perfect backdrop for revealing the abusive childhood that led to his promising career. Transitioning from homelessness to awareness of a heavenly castle certainly rewarded him with salvation. The path to his peace of mind involved many painful experiences, but those precious moments filled his literary works with truth. Honesty became his way of sharing, closing some doors and opening others, so he could live an entirely different life. 

 

What’s so wrong with our mistakes or the identities we struggle with, because God made us all possible with innate experiences? So, it is written in the Book of Life, our existence provides the emotional wealth of good and evil.

 

King Solomon said, “Words kill, words give life; they’re either poison or fruit—you choose” (Proverbs 18:21 MSG).

 

My written voice chooses to reidentify as the fruit of life, grown redemptive through the remembrance of being a beloved friend. I have no words to poison the well of insecurity among relationships that will last for eternity.

 

King Solomon wrote, "As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another" (Proverbs 27:17).

 

I love you with a lifelong promise. We are stronger together. No matter what the status of our relationship is, whether old or new, you have value in my life.
