Wildflower

Author Beatrice Harris shares the story of a lifes journey of pain, misery, and eventual joy and triumph in her
book Wildfl ower. The book tells the authors own true story, as experienced through the life of Cherolyn, the girl
who loved to run.






Cherolyn, the books main protagonist, was born into a life fi lled with challenges, even early on in her childhood.
She was born to uneducated parents and was raised in a home where abuse was commonplace. Her father
physically abused her mother and the other children as well. Despite this, Cherolyn loved her father, and he in turn,
was vey proud of her, encouraging her and telling her that she was destined for something greater.







Cherolyn took her fathers belief to heart, and ran with it. She passed through many roads in her life, roads that
led her to meet new people, start on new adventures, and even fi nish old ones. On all these roads, she faced
many challenges and received countless blessings as well. Travelling through several rough patches in life pushed
Cherolyn to fi nd herself and establish a better life something she accomplished after several years of joy and,
mostly, pain.







Wildfl ower refl ects these challenges and its effects on Cherolyn, and of course, the author as well. It is an honest
retelling of a womans journey to actualization, peace, and contentment a challenge not easy to undertake, but
if faced head on and completed, brings boundless rewards.
