About This Book

"Life is a Promise" uniquely fuses psychology with observed facts, feelings and thoughts recounted in a deeply felt personal work of fiction written with a purity that invites the reader into a woman's life with compassion and understanding. Throughout this poignant story, the author draws upon her personal clinical wisdom and psychotherapy experience as she explores the pleasures and pain in the life cycle of this courageous woman. Her life's journey commences in Canada and continues in the United States.

Lucid and factual, penetrating insights of various mental health professionals are also successfully integrated to show how women and men change and respond to new experiences. We are deeply moved as we witness the human cost of catastrophic stress on this brave woman and others in her life. We feel her pain and grief as she attempts to explore the frontiers of her spirit. There is a delicacy of feeling as we experience this woman's deep love story and the bleakness of guilt she must overcome.

This woman's spiritual journey of healing and self-empowerment appears to be predicated in "the unexamined life is not worth living." Her unfailing courage to be, in spite of the many challenges she faces due to her life events, will hopefully be an inspiration to those who are currently struggling with major issues in their life.
