内容简介:
I originally hail from Alabama, but have lived in Florida the biggest part of my life, although I feel as if I've lived many lives. I grew up in poverty, spending a lot of years in foster care and even found myself in an orphanage for a short period of time. On my own, basically, since the age of twelve, I became an alcoholic at an early age. I joined the Women's Army Corp. at eighteen, probably the best decision I ever made. I continued to make a mess of my life. A few years ago, my whole personality went through a drastic change. I found I had developed cirrhosis of the liver and emphysema with chronic bronchitis (COPD). That's when I finally started doing some real soul searching. I knew I could change and I did, slowly, one day at a time. I found a God that I could believe in and suddenly knew that He had been there all the time. These poems are the result of a spiritual awakening sent as a gift from God to offer hope to others.
