Epigraph |
Strange is our situation here upon earth. Each of us comes for a short visit, not knowing why, yet seeming to divine a purpose. From the standpoint of daily life, however, there is one thing we do know: that we are here for the sake of others...above all, for those upon whose smile and well-being our own happiness depends, and for the countless unknown souls with whose fate we are connected by the bond of sympathy. Many times a day I realize how much my own inner and outer life is built upon the labors of my fellow human beings, both living and dead, and how earnestly I must exert myself in order to give in return as much as I have received and am still receiving. Albert Einstein, Living Philosophies | |

Dedication |
This book is dedicated to Sedona's Great Grandma GG, who heard voices all her life and for the first half of her 94 years endured it without meds, healing, a therapist, or societal understanding. | |

How I finally got a handle on it, is that when you are dealing with unknowns, there can be many different ways to explain them, all of which can be valid on some level, but not all of which will resonate with all listeners. So I'm still looking for the answer to my son. I'm very happy that the author has found a good place for her daughter, but am more aware that I need to work with my own strengths, capabilities, and circumstances.
I have met the author, who leads parent support circles near hear rural home. ( )
