The Spirit Within

You know, as unique as each of us is, all of us are very similar to one another as well. How often have you felt as though no one could understand what you are experiencing? Have you ever wondered what possible reasons there could be for our journeys and our struggles, or how spirituality fits into them?

Have you ever wondered 'How will I cope with it all'? Have you ever tried to make sense of the pain that Life seems to continue to throw your way? Do you ever feel like Life is just a series of difficult lessons?

For all of our differences, we are also very similar, yet sometimes, we feel very much alone and misunderstood.

Inside this book, you will find a collection of short stories, some of which are purely about our human struggles; others look at them from a spiritual perspective, offering possible answers to many of your questions. The title story, the last and longest in the book, is especially thought-provoking and inspiring, offering meaningful and powerful insights that make sense of the difficulties we encounter in life.

There are very short pieces about grief, and being lost in the depths of depression, along with more uplifting pieces, such as a delightful story simply entitled "Hope." Time and time again, you will relate to the feelings, the struggles, the triumphs and life lessons that you will find in this book. It may look deceptively simple on the surface, but there is a depth and richness to these stories that has surprised many in this book's former life in print, and published under a different name.

Take a little walk down the common path of our human existence, and find yourself elevated to the spiritual plane, where you just might experience comfort, hope and healing in ways that you've never experienced them before.

"Outstanding! There are really no words to adequately describe what liberty has written in this collection of short stories. Only someone who has come back from a higher plane could know as much as she does, especially as seen in the title story, 'The Spirit Within', which is the last in the book. liberty uses a very unique style of story-telling to convey many experiences to which all of us can relate.

"I believe liberty forrest is one of the literary geniuses of our time. I have never read anything as wonderful in my life. The stories in this book are stylistically different, and spellbinding.

"This is no ordinary woman; she has been to the spirit world before, and has revisited us to learn more lessons in life and to teach us what she has learned. She is a truly remarkable woman and writer.

"An entertainingly, brilliant read."
