Overview"""I'm like a black pearl. Dark words, dark days, dark woes hum in my agitated mind."" We each struggle with the good and the bad; those uncertain days that pull us from here to there. But if we look up, lean up, we can tackle any issue for He will lift us with His might. Leaning Upwards is a poetry and prose journey forty years in the making. Reflections from a life built on faith, the writings express thoughts about death, depression, joy and personal experience. Poetry and journal entries let the author speak to her own inner heart, meditate on complex issues, use healing words to shake off the poison brine of salty tears and dream new hope. ""I'm like a white pearl, glowing bright with ocean's life in me. Good thoughts wave on like dancing grass."""
