O knihe

The Saga of Toi and Me - A Memoir is about our environment, family, and ancestry. It's about how the actions of love can be influential and powerful. Saga is about taking risks and learning something that is beneath the surface of our being that makes us fight for our productive lives. It's about being down, but getting up. It's about harnessing a power that we found in ourselves that propelled us forward. Power.

This memoir is for "mothers, daughters, fathers and sons, and families" who use their interwoven strength to struggle through circumstances of loss and love. My story is for all to read about examples of how resilience, perseverance, and the strength in each of us propels us to develop a power in handling the matters that we can control and matters that we can't, self-power that is taught via a people support system. My survival has to be based on my power of determination to do so... and to have newly defined fun along the way. Toi has "unleashed" me to do just that. Looking back and laughing is cathartic, that is what The Saga of Toi and Me - A Memoir is all about.
