This autobiographical book describes the author's childhood growing up in an abusive household and how God opened her eyes to this "journey" of turning her past experiences into a mission to help victims of domestic violence. Readers, whether victims of abuse or not, will appreciate the message of hope that the author provides in showing that one's past can become a meaningful building block to their future. "Sylvia invites you to observe what took place behind the closed doors of her childhood home where domestic abuse resided. She describes "IT" by taking you on a tour inside the concrete walls where..... Excuses, denials, depression, rationalizing, false hopes, addictions, generational curses are as much in residence as the family inside. Sylvia's story gives insight into abusive homes not to garner pity but to show how victims of abuse can overcome their adversities. Through the pages of this book you will find a safe place and permission to release tears, fears, sorrows and shame. You will be empowered to tell your story to others who are on a road you have already traveled. You are reassured that you are not a victim of your past and there is healing for mind, body and soul." Darlene Sheardon, President NuRevelations, LLC "Thank God that this author was brave enough to tell her story. This book is a testimony of how God is always at work in our lives, despite the tragedies and obstacles we face as a result of domestic violence in any capacity as well as for those who just need to have a prayerful watch." Rev. Joyce Dorch. If you have abandoned your dreams because you can't let go of the past, it's time to let go and come into the future God has planned for you
