I’m Robert Hall and at 72 have authored 17 manuscripts. My primary purpose is to help others suffering through the “dark night of the soul”, a depression so horribly and insanely deep that there is no hope in anything. At all. I write from experience and guarantee if you read with an open heart you’ll not only recover but also help others understand there is a magnificent beauty to life we have simply forgotten. Always keep in mind that real memory is of a present state of awareness, and has nothing to do with an imagined past. Faith is never lacking; we all have faith in something, whether it be Truth or illusions.
Mary Jo and I shared twenty years of marriage and raised three children together. Our love deepened over time, strengthened by the trials we endured—trials of our own making, yet ones we overcame together. Twenty-one years ago, we embarked on a second honeymoon, celebrating life on our first cruise. It was there, on the dance floor, that tragedy struck with unimaginable force. At just forty-three years old, Mary Jo died. A pain in her leg, seemingly innocuous, was the result of a blood clot. The compression and decompression of the aircraft dislodged it, sending it racing through her body until it reached her heart, where it exploded. Even now, I lack the words to fully convey the horror of that moment. Disbelief, denial, fear, and insane madness descended upon me in an instant, and my mind shut down. What followed—the hours, days, weeks, months, and years—was a journey through grief that defied explanation. At first torturous, it became something else entirely: a series of experiences so profound they can only be described as miracles.
For over fifteen years, I have studied and written about “A Course in Miracles”, the 1,333-page manuscript by Helen Schucman. Even within its teachings, Love remains beyond description. Yet through logic and reason, we are given glimpses. Imagine a Love that is absolute in its perfection—pure beyond measure, magnificent beyond imagination, boundless in power, all-knowing, all-seeing, present everywhere, beyond time itself. A Love that never changes, never diminishes, never loses. A Love that gives endlessly, offering infinite joy, contentment, and peace. A Love complete unto Itself, extending its perfect Light to all existence. We are a part of this Love—forever. Through my manuscripts, I seek to explain, with reason and clarity, that God is an unconscious memory slowly returning to us. This awakening comes as we learn to forgive—completely, unconditionally, always. Bob
