"Minority women living in proverty are faced with many obstacles such as low income,lack of support from family, friends,and the community they live in. We try to be everything to everybody and when we can't we beat ourselves up emotionally for it."
The journey of my soul provides the readers with prayers that tackle such issues as faith, anger,and patience.The book also provides the readers with a help section and motivational pictures to inspire the suffering.
Hanna Rappaport, LCSW of Coney Island hospital says,"I am proud of her work,strength,and determination in getting her work published. I am moved by the poem "911 To God." Depression can trigger a crisis of faith for many and they do not know where to turn."
