For the last three decades, I have listened intentionally and attentively while people have trusted me by telling me their personal, private stories. As they talked, I observed patterns and commonalities in their narratives. I compared their stories to objects, Bible stories, and nature. People—patients from hospital beds, families of hospice clients who were about to lose dying loved ones, parishioners from congregations, sisters from sorority, students from workshops and seminary, my family members and friends, lay people and clergypersons, etc.—talked. People—men and women of different faith communities, racial and cultural backgrounds, and socioeconomic standings ranging from poor to wealthy and educated to barely literate—shared from their hearts. People told their stories; I took notes without names and recognized their pain and challenges. Later, they often returned to tell me more celebratory stories about their overcoming, empowerment, victories, life changes, coping, and sometimes solutions! I listened, learned, and took more notes as I scribbled poems and rhymes, made notes in my phone, and then wrote what turned into this book. It is my prayer that you, your study group, book club, girlfriends, and buddies will read these poems, see yourself and God more clearly, and be challenged, inspired, and intrigued by reading Comparisons: Poems that Reflect the Earthly and the Divine.

Everyone has a purpose, a calling, and an assignment. Unfortunately, many people are moving around without having a clue as to why God created them. The sad fact is that many will leave this world without realizing the purpose for which they were created and why they are here on earth. The need to know who one is and the purpose for which one has been created is a major question in the hearts of many, including women. Written in a detailed, and very easy to understand format the book PERSONAL DISCOVERY FOR WOMEN addresses this major question on the hearts of many women. The book is divided into three sections which takes the reader through a process of self-discovery and self-realization. In the first section, she is made to reflect and have a better understanding of her unique make up as a person and as a woman. The reader is then taken through a step-by-step process where she is able to easily unveil and identify the qualities that make her unique. Some of these include but are not limited to her potentials, her personality, and her passion. These form part of what is referred to in the book as the Five petals of purpose. The last section of the book addresses the question. “After discovery, what next?” This is to ensure that the reader is not left loaded with so much information, without knowing what to do with it. In this last section of the book the reader is encouraged to embrace and celebrate her uniqueness while also dealing with all limiting beliefs. She is also taught how to set the right type of goals in line with her life mission and purpose, and the necessary steps to take to move from the level of discovery to actual fulfillment of purpose and destiny. This is one book that will leave the reader encouraged and energized to go and conquer the world!
