The Darien Chronicles: Part 3

Part 3: Moving into the Light

by Steven Howard

Born into a broken home, Darien started life on the wrong foot. Luckily, he finds his spirit guide in Sundeep—a friend, protector, and teacher who has been with Darien since before his birth. Darien struggles with an inner war that plunges him into addiction as he eventually approaches a point of no return.

Desperate for healing, he makes a confession to his boss and admits to his alcoholism. Despite his hesitation in getting better, he is determined to fix his broken life.

This is a journey into recovery as Darien strives to live without doubt. He slowly opens up to spiritual truths and a renewed awareness of Sundeep, who guides him to new understandings. In order to be free of addiction, Darien must face buried fears and defy his need for alcohol and drugs to mask those fears. Slowly, he discovers the healing wonders of shedding light on darkness. He transforms as he aligns his life with his true identity and fulfills his soul’s purpose, even beyond this earthly realm.
