“A FIRE… AROSE FROM MY SOUL” serves as a message of “FAITH” and
“HOPE”, as we find ourselves in life’s challenges and the dangers every day
of our lives! It also serves as a “Community Call to Action Plan” and Personal
Guide resulting from an epitomic Family’s flight before, during, and after a
historical destroyer of all---“A Fire!” Many people carry scars that others do
not understand because they cannot visibly see them. This Book allows you to open
wounds, communicate about knowledge, and provide wisdom needed to offer support
prior to, or after a disaster that you can see, hear about, and feel. It is written from a
“Heart of Love” offering a new hope to help you, and anyone who lives to witness a
Fire disaster arise more spiritually, emotionally, and financially to rebuild
and help others!
After the Biography about the Author, there are awesome Collections of
Poetic Interpretations offered by the Family, which express their original
“Up-close” encounter of feelings that were seen, felt, smelt, and heard once the
“Hot Mess Flames” ignited to turn into A Fire! This Fire engulfed their well-being
and stole their belongings! The Poems expressed within this Book disclose the
sadness, hatred, disaster, love, and the responsibility shared by their Family, and the
nearby community. There are times in life when we feel our lives reduced to “Ashes”.
Remember, your needs may be so great at that time, but “Your Troubles are
TEMPORARY”! God loves you! Rise from your Fire! …We Arose! You can
also!
The described soul searching experiences of the Author’s Family may clearly
emphasize a direct and indirect process for the rebirth of a life and a family, as they…
“Arose like a Phoenix!” This Book shares that it is important for all of us to
be prepared and equipped for the work; social, and life skills needed to help
oneself, family, and others. There are burning conversations that need to
transpire in order to work together. Communities, Churches, and any
individual should come together during these times. Put a
strategy within their organizational structure in place to suggest what the
next steps are after a disaster; to bring their needy families into a better
future. A pledge to educate and offer support will help all families “roll
with the punches of life!” Prepare for your UNEXPECTED!
