Azaria (ePub)

The story of Azaria is one that was written after much thought and consideration. Her story is not so singular in that there are many young women around the world that experience the same things Azaria endured. The uniqueness comes in the time, place, and context that these events may have occurred and continue to occur.

The story of Azaria is one that opens the eyes to the strength and endurance of true love and the depth of forgiveness that love can reach to and at the same time. It depicts the strength, endurance, and resilience of the human spirit.

This is a story that I knew had to be told. Many have lived it, but the time had come for someone to put pen to paper and release it. This is to release the pain and feelings of hurt, betrayal, and disappointment and to also bring to light the joy that comes from withstanding any storm that may approach in life.

Azarias story is told in a series of books, with Azaria being the first of that series that will follow the journey that Azaria and her family travels.

In this book, there is an opportunity for the reader to identify with each character. This is a story about the strengths and flaws of human character. There is no villain; it is just a story of young love gone wrong, which could happen to anyone. Any man or woman could make the same human errors that have been made by the characters in this story. It is not for anyone to judge but to simply read and introspect. Any of these characters could be you, or even me.

Being human is a challenge. The obstacles life presents us with tests us on a daily basis, and our character strengths and weaknesses are often tested. We may be hurt or hurt others. We may be disappointed or let down or be the one who disappoints and lets someone else down. At the end of it all, we are still human. We still breathe the same air, cry the same tears, and bleed the same blood.

Ours is to live and love in the best way we can and the best way we know how, and this is the story of Azaria.
