The Suits

The Suits is a fictional tale that reveals reflective truths about family life. It is an enlightening story of four family members in pursuit of the "Suit-American Dream" who look for ways to make them happy along the way.

The father and mother are Charles and Vanessa Suit. And the chidren, a boy and a girl, are named Sally and Shawn. They are often referred to as The Suits and act a lot like like some American families.

Suit-American is a metaphor for what one wants out of life like a good job, a new car, a house in a prestigious neighborhood, money, health, or mental and emotional peace of mind.

The Dream is where the mind goes to think and plan about what one wants. The musing that occurs to entertain expectations, explain away the use of harmful substances and abusive actions, justify the demands placed on others, or to accept the lies one tells to self.

In the story, all family members are faced with two unexpected events that occur in one weekend. By the beginning of the following week, three of the four family members deals with the event successfully, and use a new-found commitment to help each other to reevaluate their reality and their lives.
