excerpts from BeingKind - A Brave New Race

Excerpts from BeingKind  - A Brave New Race:
The stars shone brightly, and the sky encompassed the worlds afar in a midnight blue. Duke gave a healthy pour of ara. The creamy white beverage was refreshing and nutritious which encouraged Duke to have another. Duke poured a second hefty cup for himself before I took a second sip of my first. He reclined in his chair and studied the sky. 
"Ah, the deserving end of a productive day." Steam flowed out of his mouth as he spoke. 
I pulled my wool hat down over my ears and leaned towards the firepit to warm my exposed fingers that protruded through my work gloves. A small buzz passed us by to remind us that we were not alone. 
"I heard they found human bones buried in the caverns," I casually remarked. 
"Yes, I believe family units used some as burial grounds for their beloved and livestock."
"Hmm," I leaned back with my hands placed firmly behind my head. "Cremation would be the civil thing to do."
Silence fell between us as we gazed to the heavens above. Cries of controlled wildlife in the distance made our horses uneasy as they anxiously circled the corral. We finished our bottle of ara and soon retired to our tents.

HERE IT IS!

Check out my sci-fi novel: Beingkind - A Brave New Race.  I just received a copy through Amazon Kindle to approve. I will be reviewing and have the novel available this week! In this future world, with qualities similar to ours, we find that we have allowed technology to infiltrate our homes and compromise our privacy. We ask ourselves why humankind has taken their freedom for granted and if inequality, whether it is related to race or gender, has been the byproduct of ignorance, fear, power, and even jealousy. The signs of an unstable ecologic and economic planet are ignored as time fast forward and leaves civilization behind. In our future, we find that we have abandoned family values even when we must confront a fractured world and fight for its survival.

today's world

In our current milieu, I find myself referring back to my novel where we can learn much during these crucial crossroads of our life. Quotes from BeingKind - A Brave New Race:  "Race!"  There was fire in my sister’s eyes. “After all, what does race truly mean? Our government uses this term to acknowledge hatred. Their contradictions reflect the wrongdoings and inept thinking of the past. No genetic markers define race within a species. All of humankind should have been considered as one race. Ethnicity and the color of one’s skin should not have dictated to the segregation of diverse classifications. It is as if the humans considered their native origin to be subclasses within their species. It is a biological myth and an ignorant reference we must continue to eliminate!”
