This was the advertisement that suckered twenty one year old Charles "Chuck" Jenni into applying as a flight attendant at a failing midsize regional airline. This isn't a story of him working at a glorious, respected major carrier. He isn't jet setting to exotic lands and wild destinations. He isn't serving movie stars and famous musicians. This is the story of how he interacts with passengers on delays to make the best of his five-flight-a-day trips. Of how he and his pilots will either go wild and party in the lamest hotels in the most boring cities of the Midwest, or just lock themselves in their rooms and not talk to one another for a four day trip. This is the story of his love affair and heart breaking romance with a co-worker, and of his travels on his days off with fellow flighties around the country. Poetic, comical, and dramatic all at once, Chuck finds himself Flying with eyes closed.

Nothing can correct the wrongs I have made, nothing. But I refuse to be reduced while I am in the phase of transformation. Nevertheless, I have been reduced. Mind, body and soul appear to be collapsed. But I will not be defeated. Because I desire realization, embody ambition and motivate; Dreams! "In case love is different mistakes are invalid, I shall never spoil myself again." "Striving to make it tomorrow. Though the world is filled with much sorrow, filled with strife, but this is life."

We all have a story to tell; I just decided to write mine in poetry to let people know its possible to overcome our mountains. Im not perfect, but I do have faith. This book is about overcoming not just mountains but even ourselves. We always think that we know what we are doing and where were going. We have been fooling ourselves in so many ways. This book is to let people know they can change their situations. Sometimes we must go through it so we can show what faith can do, even if its the size of a mustard seed. This book is to let people know that no matter what your past was like, you can still become something special. Your past only determines your future if you let it. This book is about pain from a love one, struggles in life, regrets, victory over the enemy, faith, love, manhood, family, and the value of living. You must have a test in order to have a testimony. This book is about becoming a victor and not a victim. Its about how you are at your best when you are tired and have nothing left to give. But you still hold your head high and keep fighting the good fight. Somebody told me that its better to see where youre going and that the blind cant lead the blind. I say thats the problem: we depend on man to lead. But we also cant see where were going. We must depend on somebody to guide us through the dark times. It just depends on who you choose to guide you. The blind cant lead the blind, because both are blind men. I want God to guide me this time. Thats why I named the book Walking with My Eyes Closed.

Surrounded by brick dwellings of historic value, there are cracks and crevices in the foundation of her life that threaten to tear it down.

The whispers became loud and clear when she is forced to leave Philly to find out first-hand the perils of the City of Chester. In a short amount of time, her life nearly spins out of control until......
