Under the Weeping Willow Tree - Msw Linda S. Madison - Bog

"Fortunately for the reading public, Linda Madison is a poetic survivor, bringing pictures of old-fashioned sweat and tears to life in modern- day America. Under the Weeping Willow Tree gave me permission to feel the horror and clarity of courage, the confusion from physical and emotional frailty, not from one's own choosing.... Learning and seeking for her is living today for tomorrow, though, not just any old day of the week. Linda knows that on any given day as a single mother of four she might have enough bread on the table, and another day she might not; she knows that one day you take your baby to the doctor for care, and another day they take you. Imagine yourself sitting beneath a weeping willow tree, listening, embraced by its shimmering, gray-green leaves and drooping summer branches, enveloped in Linda Madison's tale, true and not to be believed.... Beautifully rooted, reading Under the Weeping Willow Tree will nourish you day and your week. Give yourself the opening to deepen to your own wonder."
