We don't need to get found because we've never been lost. Everything we need to connect with the Divine is already inside us."

 Seven years. Seven good years I devoted to being her obedient lover. What a waste. She was my girl - I thought could trust her. Instead she betrayed me. I spend most of my life trying live up to her expectations. Two jobs, bleeding my savings dry, debt after debt all to please that selfish bitch. I used to worship her, well her body at least. I thought I meant something to her even a little. “You’re useless,” was her last insult to me before giving me the sack and never called again. I can’t wait to confront her to show her how well I turned out.

In What Wars Leave Behind, J. Malcolm Garcia reveals the people and pain behind the statistics. He writes about impoverished families scraping by in Cairo’s city of the dead, ordinary Syrians pretending all is well as shells explode around them, and others caught in conflicts that rage long after the cameramen have packed up and gone away.

Award-winning journalist J. Malcolm Garcia's essays highlight the struggle, survival, and endurance of average people affected by the injustices of America's remorseless mammoth institutions and public indifference. They include families and small businesses still recovering from the BP oil spill; the man sentenced to life in prison for transporting drugs to save his son's life; the widows of soldiers who died, not in war, but from toxic fumes at their bases; and the Iraqi interpreter who was promised American asylum, only to arrive and be forced to live in poverty.
