If you knew how your life was going to end would you live it the same way? A conversation with God during a near death experience at eight years old led to AMERICAN PASTIME. AMERICAN PASTIME is an American Parable about conversation. Adam is a writer who is having a conversation with God at a baseball stadium in NYC the Bronx. God chooses Adam because his stream of consciousness since childhood has been heavy on commentary about American Life connected to love. God narrates on Adam's baseball field of life. Rounding first, second, and third then heading for home ... we watch Adam's life: past, present, and future unfold like a "A Christmas Carol" and "Field of Dreams." God is always in on things as he sees and hears everything but now the two sit side-by-side at the baseball game ear-to-ear no longer separated by space. Their conversation heavy on capitalism, culture, religion, art, science, 4 technology, violent school shootings on the rise, and the hopes that make up our AMERICAN PASTIME. AMERICAN PASTIME is a cautionary tale. The art of conversation is in danger of being lost but, now more than ever we need to use our AMERICAN PASTIME to bring it back ear-to-ear, device-to-device, and ask... "What is love?" And, even further reaching, "If you knew how your life affected humankind, how would your redo be? Slow down and think about the world, love yourself enough to change it. The art of conversation leads to understanding, leads to empathy, leads to love. And for Adam in writing about his life and in having a conversation with God wants love but when life stands in the way will he find it?
