The Simplistic Sign of Life

By Timothy Nichelson

Life: It all began with one amazing smile... The Simplistic Sign of Life is a hauntingly, beautiful story of true love turned tragic. John, a rich business executive from Boston, has the world at his fingertips. Then, while visiting the small northeast town of Deer Park, Connecticut, he becomes hopelessly lost on his way to lunch. Needing directions, John walks into the local bookstore to ask for help when, from across the room, he sees a young, yet stunningly beautiful local girl named Beth Sumner. A confidently handsome man's man like his father before him John ask Beth, the self-described ugly duckling, to join him for lunch. Then, after one innocent touch and with each intoxicating breath lightning would strike. Indeed it would strike again on that first weekend sail out to Touchet Island, and again, with that first heart stopping kiss. Then, like a fairytale, the young couple sets sail to live the American dream, one that seemingly crumbles all around them in a mangled mess of metal, glass, and steel. This heartfelt story, in a word, sending the young couple down a psychological path filled with loss, pain, hope, and redemption. Afterwards, with a slow burn of a wicked twist, the story taking Beth Sumner Walton to the edge of reason, then, if possible, to and beyond the breaking point of reality after an eventful night in a dark, seedy Dallas motel room.
