This book is a journey of a girl named Renee who’s learning how to become a woman. While trying to figure out her place in the world she is challenged with many trials and tribulations. She uses poetry as her outlet by telling the story of her experiences as she faces all of life’s hurdles.
The story is broken down into three parts. Part I is set during her teenage years, where she is faced
with the problems of adolescence and being forced to grow up fast. She learns quickly that life has no favorites, it is cruel to us all. She deals with finding and losing her first love, surviving her parents divorce as well as being personally violated on more than one occasion.
Part II is set during her college years as she ventures away from the security of her home and has to learn how to survive on her own without the guidance and support of her parents. She deals with the difficulty of finding out who she really is and struggles with directing that energy into positive places.
Part III she becomes OPEN to whatever glory or disaster the world has set for her. After dropping out of school and moving to the big city she has to discover how to truly be yourself and utilize those values and morals that were instilled in her as a child to make wise decisions on being the best woman she can be.
This ground breaking story is set for the times it is written in poetry so the reader does not have to read it from cover to cover at once. It can be picked up and read when dealing with any particular feeling or event in one’s life. Shireal Renee has opened up her soul for the world to know where she came from, how she overcame and where she is going. Enjoy the ride.
