So it is my own personal journal entries that I am sharing with you. My personal experiences with obstacles (depression and divorce) that I have choosen to share with you in this book. Looking back over these obstacles and periods of despair in my life, I began to realize how blessed I really am. They say hindsight is 20/20 and of course it is. There are many stories in my life that I would love to share with you of how a way was made when seemly no way was possible. Or stories of how just when I was about to give up instead all I did was say a small three-word prayer ("God help me") and miraculously whether profound or in a very subtly way I felt relief, a breath of fresh air, a sense that everything was going to be alright. There are so many times in my life where I felt lost and alone and it was the voice of a virtual stranger or someone I'd just met who would speak profound words of encouragement to me - as though they had some idea of my situation but how could they because we barely knew each other. These are examples of my "God-winks" or my angels watching over me and I'm so grateful for these feelings of safety and security. It reminds me of the biblical scriptures: " I will never leave nor forsake you" and "The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures. He leadeth me beside the still waters." There's a peace, serenity, and security that I found I could access even during rough "waters" and some of the most tumultuous times in my life. Yes, I could truly feel that peace in the midst of the storm or find "still waters" in the midst of the violent currents which threaten to pull me under. You see I've always believed in a greater LOVE, that there is something (I call it God, Source, our Creator) that sustains us when we are unable to sustain ourselves. When we fall, crumble, or simply can't see straight due to all the pressure of life. It's in these moments where I know my strength comes from pure LOVE, from our true Source. It was in my moments of devastation and despair that I reached out, and even cried out to this Source for help, comfort, and reassurance. I hope my short stories I share here with you help you to CONNECT with our true Source just like I have and still do. My hope is that this little book will encourage you connect and stay connected not only in those times of despair but also in happy times when you just want a little more reassurance that Source is always with you.Peace & Blessings my Friends, Cenell
