My overall thinking was that I was destined to be a Psychologist and nothing would stand in my way. I always felt that my purpose in this life was to help others in whichever way I could, however, as I matured, I realized that my own hidden pain had become a burden too heavy to carry. My soul was searching and I wandered aimlessly, hoping for some source of comfort - a ray of hope - anything that would ease my pain. I excelled in almost every area I pursued; I tried to convince myself that hurt went away when one can find ways to block its entry. I was wrong. Books had become my strength over time; words had nestled into my subconscious and had become my healing emollient. They were my constant companion. Eventually I resorted to the only remedy I could find and that was self expression. I found comfort by expressing my feelings on paper. These thoughts engineered into greater thoughts - finally becoming a dream that maybe one day I would write for others to read and their lives may be inspired and touched by my experiences. A fellow writer said to me quite recently and I find this exceedingly profound, 'maybe I had to endure this pain so that others in this life may benefit from my suffering'. I wonder! \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e I give precedence to the Great God whom I serve for without his guidance and direction I would not have foreseen this vision. My thanks to all who read and are inspired.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Diana Gilbert Barbara Diana Gilbert,Barbara Diana Gilbert\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1440173796\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781440173790\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e iUniverse\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/07\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 88\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.23lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.21d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Diana Gilbert Barbara Diana Gilbert","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48458313433343,"sku":"9781440173790","price":10.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b0955ef5-920c-44db-a648-4e189bda6bf4.jpg?v=1777403663","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/spiritual-journey-of-a-child-diana-gilbert-barbara-diana-gilbert-9781440173790","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
