Wilbur Pike III is ready to share lessons learned over a lifetime through the pathway of personal essays. In his diverse and lively collection, Pike reflects on his own development, his career, and life around him, ultimately leading others through humorous and poignant experiences that have provided valuable lessons for him.
Pike begins his compilation by interweaving the past with the present while comparing current events with childhood experiences that include playing army games with his friends, reluctantly attending Catholic mass, and working at a summer camp. Within sections that follow, Pike shares lessons from his profession as a management trainer, tales extracted from his forty years of fishing and traveling with two buddies, and stories about defining moments in his life where he discovered, among other things, the power and joy of simply being himself.
Pieces of the Journey offers a glimpse into one man's walk through life as he reflects on lessons learned, seeks his true destiny, and realizes that everyone's journey to seek happiness is unique.
