| Publisher Description: A few years 'ago, I received the awareness that I signed up for my role in this life--to be raised by perpetrators using drugs and alcohol to inflict emotional abuse, intentional neglect, manipulation, lies, refection, and betrayal. At the time of my relization, I thought, Wow, why would I do that? That's quite a painful assignment. In disbelief, you might also ask, "Are you kidding? Who would ask for that?" I would, I should clarify, my soul would--and did--in order to experience the grand adventure of all the high and low feelings and manifestations that can only happen in a physical body on the earthly plane. Dealt tgus at such a young age, this severe limitation became debilitating, . In order to survive, I had to conform to the environment and the people who designed it. Without permission to be me, the only space I had was sitting on my bed, writing on my pillow. When you're in it, you cannot see your part, and you cannot see a way out. But this is not a story of tragic endings. This is a story of renewal and inspiration, of healing, transformation, and triumph of the human spirit, from one who has come out the other side and blossomed in spite of it--and because of it. Still nothing happens until i write. So, the final step of my climb out didn't happen until I could see my part and write this book. I am either the problem, or the answer, depending upon my outlook and the frequency I am tuned to. I call it a boomerang. Written with a broader brush stroke for a wider group than just the addicted, afflicted, or recovering, Writing On My Pillow is written for you, the on reading these words, or someone you kow and care about. No matter who you are, or what you have gone through, or how easy or horrible your life may be, I hope that my story of profound spiritual change can be a lamp light, illuminating the world beyond what you see, lighting your way to the life waiting for you...
