This book aims to shed light on several subjects from the author's perspective, through personal connections with others, and observations of her surroundings. The poetry is one part, and the visual illustrations add another layer, in the hope that the reader may somehow understand and connect with the pain, happiness and appreciation experienced through this body of work. Through all experiences in life, both positive and negative. No matter how dark or how light, there is always room for growth, understanding and change of any person. There is always a silver lining in every cloud, as long as one is willing to look for it and learn. "Poetry is the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings: It takes its origin from emotion recollected in tranquility" William Wordsworth
