She dared to step out, witnessed an act of violence against a young boy, tried to help him, and was kidnapped by his family and forced into a polygamous marriage.

Then I realized it was more... and it wouldn't stop. Then I thought I had a standalone book, until I understood how unsatisfying an end like that would be. It needed more to make a truly complete story. :o) Thank you for the question, Christina. :o)(less)

Gifts from God

I asked friends to give me words for inspiration to write blog entries. This is what I wrote after considering the word “ambiguous.” The following contains ponderings on death, particularly that of a young person, and mentions some of the ways bodies are prepared for viewing at a funeral. If that might be troubling to you, proceed with caution.

“We know that God is everywhere; but certainly we feel His presence most when His works are on the grandest scale spread before us; and it is in the unclouded night-sky, where His worlds wheel their silent course, that we read clearest His infinitude, His omnipotence, His omnipresence.”

“Laws and principles are not for the times when there is no temptation: they are for such moments as this, when body and soul rise in mutiny against their rigour ... If at my convenience I might break them, what would be their worth?”
