Sidney Gaines

By Arthur S. Newman

"Some memories are like streams of water that never forget their path." Sidney uttered finally breaking the aged dialog. "I don't recall who said that." Annette looked puzzled. Sidney had a look of secrecy. "We are friends forever." Sidney kept his eyes fixed on Elizabeth. Elizabeth could see the veil of dissidence dropping in Sidney's eyes. "What a beautiful metaphor it sounds so philosophical and poetic." Elizabeth said with endearment. "It speaks to the nature of memory and its powerful, persistent influence on our lives," Annette added. "Certain experiences shape us indelibly, guiding our thoughts and actions much like a stream follows its natural course." Sidney explained. "Who said it?" Annettes's curiosity filled her with the need to know.

Sidney Gaines did not choose to be the person he has become. Some love him and some love to hate him. His childhood left some tragic scars on his psyche, causing him to teeter on the verge of catastrophe. We all walk the edge, and it takes just a little nudge that causes our world to come crashing down. Sidney Gaines has fallen. Can he survive the point of no return? How do you come back after a crash and fall? Is it too late for redemption? Can a narcissist tame the nature of the beast within? His story bemoans the question: are narcissists born or made?
