About this ebook
The prose and poems in this book tell the story of young Susanne Stephenson, growing up on the land in central Iowa, where early European settlers brought their Christian faith along with their need for land, a church, and a school. She marries her like-minded love, and after her husband earns advanced degrees in an Iowa university, they move their family to Virginia for her husband's work and for school for Susanne and the children. Susanne learns in the early years that she carries the defective gene for depression, but with specialty doctors providing the proper medication, she earns her degree, cares for her family, and teaches in the Virginia schools. The passion for writing becomes a catharsis that she uses to research the family's history. Susanne openly talks to God throughout her life, believing that the Creator walks with her through each of life's events. As she grieves through her husband's early death and the tragedy of the death of her sister's child, it becomes clear that depression is striking someone in each of the sibling's family, tragically - one by one. The poems listed in the book, follow her grief and gradual recovery - evident in the world of her words. As a single person wanting to marry again, she meets people of different cultures, religions, and values, but now, would God send this man to her door? This could not be possible, and she faces a diffcult decision. After changes from her earlier life, she is still talking to her God.
