About the Book

Reflections into Someone's Life is a collection of old and new poems, from one woman's travels through life to adulthood, facing head-on the things she'd rather ignore. Most of her works were destroyed in a flood and only retrieved through memory. Writing is what helped her get through many trials and tribulations of addiction, and inadequacy in her lifetime.

It was one of the things that assisted in guiding her on when most things just didn't seem worth holding onto. Struggling in her own mind to be accepted, writing helped her to learn about herself, as well as others. For years it felt like a crutch, but when she could help others with her writing, it became a blessing, then a passion and now a dream. The beauty of time and writing is, you eventually learn to come to terms with yourself, and see the things that really do matter.

An enjoyable read, it touches on many aspects of life with family, friends and everyday outlooks.

About the Author

Born and raised in Grand Rapids, Michigan I am the middle child of five. Moved to Fife Lake, Michigan in December of 1980. I love animals, music, small crafts and gardening indoors and out. Writing is really more of a passion than a hobby. It has always been a way for me to express myself in many different situations throughout my lifetime. It helps me to relate to family, friends and sometimes even strangers.

Poetry seems to bring out a passion in people that might not otherwise surface. Much like music it becomes a universal language that all cultures can relate to. Many of these poems were written for other people and moments shared throughout my lifetime. All of them have become very dear to me and each moment has helped make me the person I am today.
