PROLOGUE
I came across this fine bit of writing, which I could closely relate to in those dark days in -. Diana’s words describe my feelings better than I could myself… so here they are…
“People speak glibly about life changing moments. Some truly qualify. You propose marriage and are accepted. You hear, ‘You’re hired’ or ‘You’re fired’ and your future shifts instantly. The doctor says ‘malignant’ (or something else life-changing) and everything is different. But anyone who has ever lived through it will tell you: It is profoundly shattering to learn, in one instant, that everything you thought was true about a loved one (my words: or perhaps your own life) is actually a lie. (Your entire world is turned upside down – what you thought about yourself, and what gave meaning to your life). The world rocks on its axis; when it is finally steady again, you are in a strange place that resembles, but is totally unlike the place you were in just a moment earlier.”
– fine and perceptive writing by Diana B Henriques from ‘Wizard of Lies; Bernie Madoff and the Death of Trust’
From A Book Extract (as published in the New Zealand Herald)
And that’s exactly as I felt*, as I tried to absorb the words of the …
Shattered and Broken!
If you want to read the full story, the whole journey go to An Open Book 3, My Story and/or Shattered and Broken + Writing into the Light (all different perspectives and threads)
"Life is God's novel; so let Ultimate Source write it, as it unfolds."
