This is a book about a spiritual journey to God and His love. Be prepared because it is about an examined life and a search for the love from the author's Heavenly Father during her childhood when she was abused, and during her adulthood while dealing with the after-effects of it. BOOK BACK COVER: Socrates, Dostoyevsky, and Seneca all said that to have an examined life meant a devotion to truth, and would involve: The search for wisdom and intellectual humility. Feeding of a soul so as to be resilient against evil, pain, hardship, and misery. Identifying meaningful goals. And the striving to perfect one's character. Our Heavenly Father summed it best when He inspired Solomon to write in Ecclesiastes 12:13: "The conclusion of the matter, everything having been heard, is: Fear the true God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole obligation of man."
