Excerpt
I was born and raised in Belfast, Northern Ireland. My schoolmates were jealous of how pretty I was, so they would regularly beat me up to make me ugly.
I felt ugly inside.
My daddy left me when I was seven years old for another woman. When he divorced my mother I felt abandoned and unloved. I don’t remember Daddy ever hugging me. I’ve been trying to prove I’m lovable ever since.
Does any of this sound familiar?
• Absent or disengaged father
• Looking for love in all the “wrong” places
• Trying to prove yourself / get Daddy (or Mommy) to love you
• Never feeling good enough, that you fit in, or that you matter
The book has been arranged into three sections: THE PAIN; THE PROCESS; THE PROMISE. The poems can be enjoyed in chronological order or you can open a random page and see what your message is for today.
Do you ask yourself: Why am I here? This book will answer this question and put you on the path to feeling more love and joy in your life.
