No matter how bad things get or how hopeless life seems, always look beyond the present. The story of one woman's struggle to redefine herself and her life when her teenage marriage ends after 12 years. She finds herself a single mother to three children at the age of 28. With no prior dating experience and disowned by her religion, she becomes captive to the internet age of chat and online relationships even though it is the very thing that lured her husband to another woman. Can she regain her self worth and change her life for the better as she enters an unknown world where every turn is another path that could lead to even more pain or to her ultimate goal of happiness? Originally written as a healing exercise, Beyond the Present is a personal and touching memoir that is sure to connect with those who read it.
