The Journey From Fear to Love Is Shorter Than YOU think (ePub)

The Journey From Fear to Love is Shorter than You Think is a memoir intended to describe the awakening into life which occurred for Susan after her horrific childhood experience. Born in Chicago in 1964, the author lived on the northwest side and attended local schools. She was sexually abused just two months shy of her third birthday by a 16 year old neighbor. She was just a skinny little girl, with short blonde hair, wearing a yellow dress, not even three. She was also oblivious to any kind of danger, because she was playing three houses down with her friends in the front yard as she always did. The predator chose a concrete hall way entrance to his basement to abuse her. She was so small, so helpless. The concrete walls towered over her, without possibility of escape—much like the maze on the cover of her book! Susan unknowingly buried this event within herself. She grew up and even went on to receive a Bachelor and Master of Social Work from Arizona State University. Susan shares how she overcame the mental, physical and spiritual effects that had rooted themselves deep into her being without her conscious awareness. She goes on to explain the steps she took, and that everyone can take to get "present and focused "and live in Love more often then not.The Journey from Fear to Love Is Shorter Than You Think is for anyone who wants to become awake/aware, clear and empowered.
