Facets of Life - Heather Mitchell - Bog

Life is but a splendorous ethereal jewel--sparkling brilliantly as it spins throughout time and space. Each of its countless colorful facets represents a memory, fleeting feeling, or thought. There is no better way to capture a finite moment in time, emotion, or personal revelation than with a poem. This carefully compiled collection of chronologically arranged pieces contains inspirational and introspective poems in a variety of formats and styles. It is the second in what will hopefully be a series. The first volume is titled Heart, Mind, and Soul, containing autobiographical poetry by the author Heather Mitchell, written between ages thirteen and twenty-six. This volume, Facets of Life, picks up from that point, spanning ages twenty-seven through forty-four. Although still autobiographical, these increasingly complex poems are much more introspective and thought-provoking as the author ages, further matures, and faces many unusual trials, yet somehow finds the inner strength to not only survive but to persevere. This book is sure to encourage self-reflection and personal growth. Readers may also find insights to which they can relate or take comfort in knowing that others share similar seemingly insurmountable trials, thus helping them feel less alone. Facets of Life is perfect for those seeking to explore their inner selves, face hidden demons, and most importantly, celebrate their own uniqueness.
