A year after returning to Wisconsin, as Jakob pages through his journals, he discovers he has no recollection of most of it. It seems he is experiencing a bout of amnesia. But when did it begin? Was it caused by the loss of his physical strength? His doctors are not providing answers. Or was it the severing of his bond with Rachelle? He did everything he could for that child, but it was not enough. Perhaps he suffered more trauma than he realized while living in Starlight City. Was it hypervigilance in Idaho that took a toll on him? Jakob ponders whether anything he remembers is accurate. He must compile his writings together to relearn how he got to where he is. As he embarks on his journey, he discovers not everything is what he thought it was.
Threads is a slight fictionalization of the author's personal journal. It is the sewing together of his present reality to what happened four years prior. The author had awoken to the realization that he was in a self-imprisoned emotionally abusive relationship. Honing in on the voice of the Navigator, that still quiet voice led him on a life-altering journey. He learned lessons in love, caring for others, protecting the vulnerable, healing, and pushing himself to Become more than he ever thought possible.
