"The owning of my thoughts, and the freedom and courage in expressing those thoughts have been a salve to my mind, body and soul. I have given myself permission to follow and speak my voice without compromise."

Different things influence what we believe, how we behave and how we think. As a result, these influences mold and shape our voices. Then, as we begin to connect with and express our voices, we find that this process promotes healing.
Many different things inspired the poems written in this book. Their content reflects new elements of my voice that I have found, and my expression of them has helped me to find new levels of healing.
Come along with me on a journey. Enjoy the pictures and reflect on the poems and questions within this book. They are about everyday life experiences. Allow them to guide and challenge you as you find greater depths of your VOICE and HEALING.
