In dark times, you may feel like all you have to hold on to is yourself. Navigating the unplanned twists in the road, finding your way out of the valleys, and climbing up the peaks can be extremely challenging. Know you are not alone on your journey. Your perseverance is courageous. You shine through the dark. You are a hero.
Take to heart the words in Rumi’s poem: “Always remember you are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, smarter than you think, and twice as beautiful as you’d ever imagined.” Your legacy is not the riches you leave behind. Your gift is the valuable journey of your life and the wisdom you’ve gained throughout your personal stumbles and summits. I have thoroughly enjoyed collaborating with illustrator Bebe Keith on this book. Just as I collaborate with musicians on my songs in the recording studio and on stage, Bebe’s enchanting watercolors have given my lyrics a new voice. I am so grateful to have her as a member of my “band.” ~ KT The hero’s journey is personal for me. In October 2009, after my first mammogram, I was diagnosed with breast cancer at age 39. It felt like I’d fallen down a deep dark hole. For the past decade, I’ve learned that I can find the bottom, inch up, and make my way back to the top. I now feel like I’ve summited a mountain! ~ KT |
