About the Book
Dear Friend,
The bloom of youth years are the most critical time for you when many changes, mentally, emotionally and physically come together like that of an emotional thunderstorm and no doubt becomes difficult to digest.
It’s like taking a whole pizza topped with your favorite sausage or pepperoni melted perfectly into that extra cheese and eating it whole rather then, digesting one piece at a time.
To illustrate what would happen to a forthcoming butterfly going through its changing process in its cocoon if the developing process was interrupted? It would struggle to survive and eventually die. The change of the caterpillar to a beautiful butterfly can take several months. The bloom of youth stage can take several years.
I see the “bloom of youth” years as a process similar to the “metamorphosis” of a butterfly. During the caterpillars confinement in its chrysalis all appears quiet on the outside but there are a lot of changes going on inside that we can not see.
Like young teen adults, everything appears to be fine on the outside but there are many changes going on inside during the final stage to becoming an adult that you personally must experience.
I feel the “bloom of youth” years are the most critical and most awesome contribution to the success of becoming a mature and responsible adult.
Sincerely,
Patricia Jane Behling
About the Author
As a parent my concern is for our young teen adults and what they are forced to experience. My passion is to make even a small difference in helping you young, creative and talented individuals understand that you are “very” important to our social structure. I wanted to share with each of you the things I experienced directly or indirectly in my life and how the people that touched it were stepping-stones to building my character. As I learned about my strengths and weaknesses I began to understand who I was as a person. The challenges, disappointments and rewards that came from my many experiences as a teen has given much insight along with the lessons and how quickly our lives change when we allow others to enter. Coming in contact with those who have highly influenced me in a positive or negative way over the years and finally connecting with my spiritual side has greatly enhanced my life. I soon realized when I was younger that life was packed full of choices but it was the decisions that made the difference. I could become bitter or learn, grow and prosper from each event, relationship and emotional experience through my behavior and attitude over the years. Because of those experiences I have gathered all of the lessons and evolved a better person becoming fascinated with the individual mind and its behavioral function in connection with the emotions of the heart. The experiences I had in life led me to the curiosities of the complex mind. Exploring psychology and the behavior of individuals which I believe to be the “artery” to beginning to understand a small part of that synapse or “emotional nerve connection” of life and the individual mind is what gave birth to my desire of self expression.
