Dear Readers, This book of letters may be a tad scrambled... maybe more depending on the type of person reading from cover to cover. Just a forewarning, but it's confusing; it's hard to comprehend these events that took place. This story isn't your average novel, as you have most likely already realized. On the inside, you will find many puzzling things that I have written to my mother and am ready for the world to see. These letters were never sent to her and aren't written in any specific synchronized order. I'm just writing from the heart, telling her how I feel. You are welcome to read along, to listen to my voice. I feel that everyone has struggles; everyone has problems that they have no choice except to face. These are a few of mine... I hope that you can find hope, courage, bravery, determination, and maybe a little survival in them. From experience, I know for a fact that everyone has an entire collection of varying strengths, weaknesses, etc--- finding that safe haven is what matters, building it up in size. Read from cover to cover, and I pray that you'll see why.
