My character was a strong-willed individual; he faced many obstacles along the way. Bo's problem with drugs after the Vietnam War would lead him to recovery, and relapse several times. He managed to stay clean for many years and live a productive life, until AIDS entered his world. Once he delivered the news of contracting AIDS, the daily struggle with the disease, co workers, and a once loving and supportive family began.

For we know we don t live in a perfect world. However, there is always a desire to find peace of mind within one's self. It doesn't matter if we are AIDS patients, single mothers, fighting addiction or just people dealing with turmoil's life can bring. If we can manage to achieve that inner peace, then we are truly ble
