This book is a culmination of times I was submerged in seas of brokenness, floating in waters that drowned my soul and shattered my heart. It is also an expression of beauty from ashes and joy that transpired from mourning, attributed to lessons learned during some of the same most intimate encounters; lessons I often felt whispering to my spirit amidst both heartbreak and trauma; lessons of seasons so to speak which, unlike with natural cycles, often do not change or transition until we as individuals transition and change.
