Publisher's Synopsis
The author writes for all of us as she pauses often on the path of awakening awareness to celebrate the discovery of some new understanding, or to capture fascinating scenarios from this journey of life-- " . . .

I remember how excited I felt when he only watched me, and how dejected I felt when he left me. . . ." From Ma, I Remember" . . . Brethren, let me tell allyuh something, allyuh stay here in this country worshipping, worshipping--worshipping in your White church, worshipping in your Black church--all of allyuh worshipping the same God, like God is a clown, some erratic, culture and color-discriminating clown . . .?"

You sound strange to me, and I to you, but we are one . . ." From Where You Come From?" . . .
