The Perfect Blend
I RECOGNIZED THE CHOICE I HAD:
I began the journey of telling my story many years ago. I always found a reason not to follow through with publishing. It was as if I wanted to protect my friends, my family, and of all people, even my abuser! However, when the opportunity presented itself again, I knew that this would be my opportunity to help someone who has gone through what I survived. “When the Soul Cries: Trauma. Tears. Triumph,” literally brought me back to life! I chose to be a voice to the voiceless and tell my story. This is one of the best decisions that I have ever made.
At the time that I began to write my story, I was in the transformation phase of my life. I was a single mom, a hard worker, and an aspiring entrepreneur. By the time the book was published, I was happily remarried, with not one but two thriving businesses.
This is why it was and still is so important for us as women to be transparent about what we’ve endured. There is ministry in your mess, a testimony and a light at the end of the tunnel!
I can say from personal experience, that the overall purpose of this book is the physical manifestation of not only the trauma and tears but ultimately the courage and triumph! It is a quintessential tool that can be used for women all around the world, and a tool to help them overcome life’s obstacles.
When I would ask myself, “why should I tell my story?”, “What good will it do to bring to light what I’ve kept hidden for so long?” The answer would always be, “this is so much bigger than me, my story has the literary power to impact millions!”
“When the Soul Cries: Trauma. Tears. Triumph.”, is not just an anthology. Not just a group of stories told by women who have no real value to bring to the world. It is and continues to serve as a rallying cry to all of the women who have endured or continue to suffer in silence. We chose to tell our stories of violence, abuse, and redemption so that one day, they can too!
This book is changing lives one person at a time. Today, I am a wife, mother, entrepreneur, author, women’s rights advocate, and most of all I am happy. Without sharing my story, people wouldn’t be able to see how you can be at rock bottom and still come out on top. I survived and I thrived. So can you!
