My story begins when I was five; innocent and unknowing, before being sexually abused and tortured in beastly ways by a sick and evil cousin on dad's side of the family. I froze those horrific and sickening memories until they surfaced uninvited into my adult life.
Following five years of superb counseling and having my understanding husband by my side, I learned how to separate negative emotions from those memories and see my past abuse with adult understanding.
I learned to forgive; love myself and live without the guilt and shame my abusers inflicted on me. I found inner peace as I lived through the hell and found happiness.
The first few chapters are graphic to read, as they were for me to live through, but as one reads on, they discover as I did, God is in charge and He’s ALWAYS with us. God walked me from confusion and pain to clarity and peace. Poems included in my book are about my horrific abuse and those of great joy in later years.
Without the graphic details, this is the book synopsis.
