This book is a compilation of my artwork and photography put together in a motivational approach to help someone struggling with obstacles in their lives; therefore it is not too wordy and is small enough to give as a gift. I have geared it towards a teen or young adult audience, although others should also benefit from the sentiments inside if their self-worth takes a blow, dreams are crushed, or you just need to single out a few of the important things in life that truly matter. My personal experiences with family loss have taught me just how valuable every day is and through it all I have gained some insight to how one feels and what you can overcome to live your life every day.

I lost my mother when I was 13, my only brother committed suicide a few days before his 31st birthday, and my father died of cancer a couple of years ago. I am the wife of a very loving and supportive husband and I am also the mother of two beautiful, loving,and caring children. I have once again found my artwork that had been missing from my life for a number of years, and it has helped me to cope and heal from the inside. Everyone needs an outlet and a little support goes a long way. If you don't have the words to say to someone or you want to remind them of the importance of their lives, then I would recommend this book. I am sharing a little of what I have learned with you in hopes of inspiring someone else. The book is a gentle reminder of the importance of life, and a chance to pause to take some of it in.
