A Reflection of My Father: Accepting the Past, Embracing Me & Growing Forward (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781545674468)

When we're experiencing feelings of hurt, betrayal, and attack, we want to scream to the world the injustice to our souls. We desire reprieve and demand vindication, swiftly. Just as quickly as our emotions take us through whirlwinds for wrongs, we can quickly dive into blissful escape to imageries of happiness, both leading to a discontented life. The intention of this book is to challenge feelings behind these emotions, and perspectives that induce those emotions. Observing your past can aid in eliminating stumbling blocks and toxic energy, and shift your outlook to a future of freedom.
A Reflection of My Father, unveils the truth of a Father's position in his daughters life, and her inheritance as a beloved daughter. It encourages her to live in the freedom of love and light, unhindered by the shadows of her past, and reassures her strength, no matter the space she occupies, in what he has given her, so she can walk in confidence of the light that shines from, in, and through a daughter.

Whether present or absent, your father has made an impact on your life. When we carefully consider, we come to see that we are a reflection of our fathers.
