Jeremiah's Dream: a Tale of Telekinesis C. J. Craig

"Jeremiah's Dream" is a down to earth fictional tale about an orphaned boy who discovers he has the supernatural ability known as telekinesis. At first he struggles, finding it difficult, but with time and practice he grows stronger. You will follow him through his life, not just with how he uses his telekinetic ability, but also his inner journey of growth as he learns about himself, the world he lives within, and how his ability influences his decisions others would not consider. Possessing the ability to shape metal, glass, water, and the physical manipulation of everything and everyone, forces him to understand the difference between the use and abuse of great power while secretly using it (and sometimes abusing it) to entertain himself and those around him. The fall to temptation is easy when you possess a gift that allows you to virtually get away with anything. You will witness his dilemma while he contemplates the difference between justice and vengeance against those he finds threating on any level. He must fine tune his own sense of self-discipline and self-restraint while teaching certain people a lesson they will never forget without drawing attention to himself, for even he is mortal with a deadly weakness. Early in his life he is guided to follow the righteous path by a martial arts mentor he grows to trust and respect, as well as others he encounters through more spiritual circumstances. He does not always take their advice, and has to learn difficult lessons the hard way as a result. With every action are rewards and consequences, and sometimes the unexpected consequences significantly outweigh the rewards. He tries to find the balance, where he can use his ability to help create comfort in his everyday life without striking terror in the hearts of those around him. He uses his ability for fun, entertainment, as a tool, and as a weapon of defense that ultimately turns offensive with dire destructive consequences. The "Dream" takes on many forms with different explanations for each. Is it his dream for future endeavors and how he wants to live his life? Is it his sleeping dreams that influence his decisions? Or, is his entire life the dream itself? You will have to read the book to find out.
