What a wonderful collection of “walking” poetry! The author took me through the highways and byways of her life. From the gates of unguarded vulnerability, to the tests and daily quizzes that come from life’s experiences with PEOPLE. I am grateful for the read and to know that there is a young person out there that can tell a story that rises up from the pages to say…Look at me! Through it all, I now have a healthy Spirit that gave me meaning and purpose in my life. You can have it too!. – LaDonna R.

I’ve grown as a person just by reading this book. Each poem took me on a journey that caused me to reach for more. The author took their time making sure each reader was on the same page, being present with her during this journey. For this, I rate this book an A+ – Amazon Review
