Produktbeschreibung

Breaking Free is a book of one woman's journey to freedom. I woke up this morning with an idea, a creative thought. I realized that I was no longer lost, but found. The shattered fragments of my life shifted into place, and my concept of self was reestablished. I was imperfect but learning. I saw beauty of spirit, clarity of mind, a loving heart, courage and unfailing strength and said, "Here am I." I remembered that I was a dreamer, always had been, always would be, and I stretched into my old self and I fit "like a well-loved glove." I understood, or perhaps remembered, in that moment that I was special, that the spark that had ignited my soul at birth was intact. That all the impossibilities were but hurdles to be jumped, in a race of "life to be won." My picture of self had survived the war years! Pain was not a part of that but only a tool by which to learn: that forgiveness was part of healing, necessary to survive. That ultimately we have no enemies except the enemy of self. That there were no restrictions on happiness, except those, self-inflicted. There were no dreams that could not be realized except those we had not the courage to dream. Hardships were not handicaps but mere stepping stones to greater faith. Beyond, yet within the stretch of my hands, is the gift of self, God Given. I am the miracle He created. My world will be all that I make it! Humbly I walk, steadily towards eternity, amid endless possibilities. The choices, they are mine!

Autorenporträt

Sheila Bailey McLaren is not a ¿gment of the imagination. She had the most profound e¿ect on this author. She is very strong willed, funny, compassionate, and brave. Her faith is strong and her outlook on the world, unique. She often sees that which others fail to see. She is an avid reader, mostly regency romances (Georgette Heyer) and mystery suspense (Clive Cussler), for example.The author has been writing for three decades with never an impulse to publish. Now retired, she has the time. This is her ¿rst book. The words fall quietly upon a blank page, and they tell a story that is unlike what the author started out to say. It has always been that way. It's magical! She does not change it.If you can look upon a sunset sinking into the sea and see ultimate beauty, if you love the rustle of leaves under your feet and the wind talking to the trees, you are one with her.Her grandchildren leave her speechless. They are priceless!From a heart of gold, which has been battered and bruised, rises in beauty a spirit still intact and forever positive. She believes always in the power of love and the power of self.Truth will always be the strongest tool she has. It's her reality. It is her strength.
