Produktbeschreibung

When the world seemed so perfect; family, friends, career. Life tries to mock us with unimaginable things which will happen in just a blink of an eye. Never did I think that the life I am living on will turn out to be the life I never imagined it to be. I was a happy woman who always thinks that "Youth is a state of mind". Working as a hair designer is something that I wanted to do aside from taking care of my dying husband and my kids. I always do things in accordance to my faith in God. However, my life changed after being admitted to having a brain aneurysm, I thought that I would lose my eyesight because of it, just like my sister. But I experienced more painful and most depressing - "A man-made stroke". I questioned God, I lost faith to him and also to humanity after experiencing the bottom rock of life. The irony of life has been chasing after me, indeed. As I started to move forward from all the pain my life has had. A piece of very sad and painful news - I didn't see coming, my sister Barbara, died because of a heart attack. Everyone was mourning, I was anxious and felt all the pain that has been lurking in my heart. I believe that people will not only learn out from direct experience but also from the experiences of others. I don't want people to go through the portal of pain and uncertainties to learn. This story; My Story is a piece of medicine that will help readers accept that everything happens for a reason: feel the pain, cry like a wolf, start to move forward, learn from those experiences, smile like nothing happened, praise the Lord with all your heart and expect that something might happen in just a blink of an eye.

Autorenporträt

Mary Ellen Eaton Smith is a happy, loving mother of 3 kids and grandmother of 11 grandchildren. She retired as a Master Hair Designer at JC Penney Styling Salon in Alton Illinois. As a Christian who was bathed and soaped with great blessings, she mimed the story of Jesus on a cross. She believes that despite all the tribulations she will encounter, it would not cease her from doing things in accordance with the teachings of God. "Movimiento Es Vida" is her mantra in life, moving forward is needed and is a must to forget and to step up from the irony and subtleness of life. She always sees a glass-half-full than half-empty: dwell on the positive side of things and see the beauty in every situation - there is always a silver lining in a dark cloud.
