From the Eye of the Hurricane is a collection of short stories and poems about healing from an abuse survivor’s perspective. Empowering, sad, freeing, then hopeful the stories move the readers from the darkness of the storm to the light at the end of the tunnel, shedding light on what abuse survivors may encounter on their healing journey, and acting as a reminder, that you are not alone, we are not alone.
From The Eye of the Hurricane was written during a very intense and difficult time while working to heal from many years of abuse as a child. As the journey neared completion, it became important to share the ups and downs of the daily struggle to find peace to create hope, to build connections and to establish an edge of light to grasp before sinking back into to the darkness.
Despite the difficult days, it was worth it, the cycle of abuse is broken, and I became the person I was intended to be, not the broken cast-off my parents and their parents before them created. My children have known a mother who has fought hard to learn how to do this thing we call life differently than she had been taught. I owed my children that. I am here to tell you that it is possible, although extremely difficult; it is our responsibility to stop the cycle of abuse. It is up to us to be the change we prayed for every night as children. It is not too late and there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Thank you so much for joining me on this journey. Kathy
