From the enigmatic mind of Neo Blaqness, comes this, long awaited, volume of quotes, poems, and excerpts taken from past published masterpieces and responses to fan letters from all over the world. Deep, thought provoking, somber, and often funny, Neo Blaqness challenges you spiritually, mentally, and emotionally to look outside of your comfort zone with commentary that hits close to home, church, and the heart. You may even find yourself getting mad at him but, like many of Neo's fans say, you just can't stop wanting to see what he says next. Find out why he is called "A Different Kind of Brutha" and "The Eclectic Essence of an Ebony Epiphany." If being Hood, Ghetto, or Gangsta is played out in your life, then try out the NEW BLAQ A WORD FROM DR. VERLEAN HAILEY: " "It is, perhaps, the noblest character of man, that we should continue to desire to share love despite our abuse of the same when we receive it." -a brief quote from page 93, entitled, No Never Alone. Neo Blaqness has successfully competed with himself and victoriously aroused in this reader every conceivable emotion the Soul could express and, at last, he pulled out the deepest expression of love as the tears now dry up and I rejoice and feel highly favored to have been the recipient of such illuminating words. In Neo's latest release, "Neo Blaqness: ePiphany," you would be hard pressed to find your favorite piece because, on every page, he drops wisdom, piercing your consciousness and overthrowing your base thoughts, and infusing you with the sudden clarity of a long awaited revelation. Life is about "Change and the Journey" and the courageous paths we take no matter how different they are from those who walked before us. Neo's sharing his epiphanies stretches our imaginations and challenges our belief systems to plummet as well as rise to the mind of our Creator, while shedding light on the depravity of what we created walking in darkness, unaware that He was always there. If I were to share two more profound heart rendering reads, they would be found on pages 114, The Call - "Life calls us all to greatness. Some before many. Many to only one. The thought of living up to either calling, humbles me equally." And if you are really, really, I mean, really interested in living life to its fullest, go directly to page 167, read Animus Libertus The Courage to be Free, where you find this awesome quote...."I find contentment in the struggle to discover" If you are the type reader who loved the poetic and poignant pen of Khalil Gibran, The Prophet, and his beloved poem, "A Visit From Wisdom," as well as the social and cultural truths of Langston Hughes and his release of "Dreams," you will find, as I did, Neo's work a true Masterpiece, and I am a better woman for not only reading his book, but for endeavoring to live some of its truths and embrace my own "epiphanies." I give this book a 5 plus star, and dare you to "discover YOU in it "" -Dr. V-
