Sunshine & the Shadows (ePub)

Militant Ignorance and Saving the Planet Dont Mix!The news media rarely reports and seldom is heard from the voices of those directly affected by seemingly noble, but certainly misguided actions of activists, developers and others who invade their domain. A new book, Sunshine & The Shadows does just that in a novel form that is based on some facts and some real events. The story reveals dark shadow side of what saving the planet agendas and militant actions can bring to innocent rural Americans. The theme is set in the San Luis Valley of Colorado where Eco-warriors from Denver Colorado come to the valley with a definite agendafreeing the range from cattle on public lands. They are soon followed by a hungry media lady seeking crises, conflict, and confrontation to feed her TV audience and further her career. Close behind her come the lawyers, opportunists and tragedy as their agendas and actions reek havoc on an innocent ranching family. The story clearly reveals the ripple effects of our actions, whether they be for good or for ill. The message in the book is timelyespecially as we are bombarded by a constant stream of the dire forebodings of impending environmental disasters and their accompanying never ending messages of Gloom and Doom! At the end, the fruits of the Ripple Effects of the novels characters come back to each of them. Egos and agendas bring TRAGEDY for some: love and experience bring TRANSCENDENCE for others.
