Seeing Through Closed Eyes: a Memoir with a Social Conscience Angelo La Pietra

From the beginning, the basic element of the story that I have wanted to write about has been the Meaning of Life. But the story I started to pen has been the story of my life. For as long as I can remember, people have been telling me to write that story down. A contemplative blend of memoir and moral science, Seeing through Closed Eyes: A Memoir with a Social Conscience is an honest and provocative testament to the power of spiritual relativity and its ability to help attain meaning in life. Along with the subjects of passion, life, and death, author Angelo La Pietra explores the relationship of the uncharted subconscious and the complacent conscious. Seeing through Closed Eyes is based on La Pietra's unconventional life and focuses especially on peculiar dreams that have challenged his understanding of spiritual relativity. The unique personalities in La Pietra's dreams come unsought into his life, imposing their own agendas onto his. As you reflect with him on these visions, you will follow his journey through painful memory, impassioned seeking for meaning, and finally, a growing understanding of what life could be.
