In The Birth of a New Dawn in Me, I share with you my journey of change-change from being dependent on what others think to learning to think for myself. Through this change, I have come alive spiritually. In this book, I describe this spiritual awakening as the birth of a new dawn in me. As you read my stories, I hope that you will feel the Spirit and a new dawn will be birthed in your own life as well. Janet THE VOICE OF ONE WHO SITS IN THE PEW I have written these thoughts so they might give you: Hope to endure the pain you are going through at present. Hope to overcome the struggles in life you are now facing. Hope that you might reach for your dreams. Hope for after this life. Hope for a tomorrow where everywhere you look there will be love, joy, and peace.
