Book Cover & Preview Text
Life deals us a different hand or challenge each day we are allowed to be a part of it. Seems strange to think we are allowed to exist, but that truly is a gift given to us each day we awaken to the world God created for us. I had a friend recently say to me ‘no matter what we might experience the sun will rise tomorrow’. How true that is. The most important thing is how we choose to respond to the experiences that are presented to us, that choice is up to us.
As I see it there are two very different and distinctive parts to us as a being – one that is very human and one that is spiritual. The problem is that too often we allow the human part to hide the spiritual part from who we really are. Spiritual being is not tied one hundred percent to our religious beliefs as that of being Christian, Muslim, or even atheists, in some instances, but includes the belief or faith we have in ourselves.
Tragedy often causes people to refocus on their purpose in life and who they really are. Am I doing what I want to do? Do I serve a purpose to anyone or anything? What is the bigger picture that I am supposed to see or experience? Am I satisfied with where I am in my life or do I need to make a change? What is that change and when should I move toward it? My tragedy was the brutal stabbing death of my youngest daughter – Becca. This has caused me to re-evaluate my life as it is.
I hope that from reading this book that you will be able to reflect on events and people in your own life that impact the person you are and within your self then, discover who you are for you, not for what you do or give to those around you. Do you know who you are? Within your body, your soul, and your mind do you know who you are?
