From our birth to our death, our life is a journey. A spiritual odyssey that is shaped by many things. From our ancestral bloodline, to the geographic place and time that we entered into human history. From the strong influences of our cultural customs and traditions; to the deeply held devotions of our varied religious practices and beliefs. Combined with the unique personal circumstances we experience as individual members of our immediate families, neighborhoods and workplaces and the blessings, challenges, injustices, and sufferings which greatly influence the person whom we will ultimately come to be. For all peoples, in all times and in all places, there is a Divine Person Who moves through the waters of life with each one of us. Who seeks to help us navigate our life's course safely to its eternal destination. This is the personal story of the spiritual odyssey of Rose Mary. It is the personal story of how she discovered the One Who has been charting the course of her entire life. May her journey of discovery lead you to a personal discovery of your own and to the One Who desires to bring you safely to heaven's port at life journey's end."
