Rising Above Fog

My principal purpose in writing this book is to encourage individuals to recognize within themselves any serious emotional scars caused by painful, unresolved experiences. I hope they will have the desire to seek to rise above these difficulties by breaking down any barriers to seeking help. For those already on a path upward, perhaps my experiences, thoughts, and insights will be helpful in their journeys. I want others to share in my elevated joy.

Although Rebecca had completed the writing of this book in 2009, it laid dormant until early 2015. It was then she was fully engaged in a program designed to bring the conscious self into harmony with the higher self. While participating in this program, so many of the concepts she had written about years prior were re-introduced. And so, she felt the push to share her experience. The process of writing this book had served as such a healing framework in her own life, she recognized she had gone through another part of her Journey where the concepts once again aided in bringing more purpose, clarity and harmony to life. Isnt this what we all strive for? Rebecca shares it now in hopes of empowering others to recognize they have the choice and free will to live the life they want, versus the life in which they feel resorted to living. For it is in seemingly small moments, where we can intentionally and deliberately create the life we choose and live in harmony with our souls purpose and desires.

Religion has caused much strife in the world due to misinterpretations and mistranslations. Many don’t take the time to learn about the other belief systems they decide to judge. People like to think their way is right and others’ are wrong, which is ego. So many people treat others horribly in the name of religion. After much study of religions, Gnosticism, early Christianity, philosophy, biblical scholars, and spiritual teachers, Janine Palmer (Silver Moon) shares profound messages of different perspective to assist with ascension and rising above falsehood and illusion and back toward love.

"Growing up in a coal mining camp is difficult enough. But, when Coreen Shell's abusive father makes a promise for her thirteenth birthday that could destroy what's left of her life, she resorts to a desperate prayer to a God she's not sure exists. The next day, a flood washes through the coal camp, like a backhanded answer to her prayer. Coreen, her mother, and her crippled grandmother next door must climb the mountain to find refuge in a nearby church. Then, news of a murder changes everything, in a way Coreen never imagined. Now the real question is: Will Coreen and her damaged, dysfunctional family conquer all the lies, secrets, hardship, and hatred ... or be destroyed by them?" --page [4] of cover.
