When a soul starts to cry you need to find a way to listen...
"Connected to Source" is such a way.
Life experiences and future prospects will be united in this book from three epochs in time - the past, the present and the future. That you understand Tina Thurston leads you through all these epochs with a language which everyone understands. She describes with impressive opennessher deepest feelings like pain and loneliness, like hope and happiness, love and despair, speaks from dreams and longings, from escape and new beginning.
Tina Thurston takes you with her on a journey through her life which could be yours... and for some people maybe it was. She painted impressively pictures in your mind which are a mirror of her heart, her soul and her pain und she answers questions you never want to ask or you never want to know their answers. She answers questions like "Why do I have to be here?", "How long can this misery last?" or "How many times must I cry?". Questions, which everybody has had at anytime, in any situation, anywhere and anyhow by themselfs.
Who expect a book of funny entertainment on a Sunday afternoon should better search for another reading.
Who though is ready to follow for "A Journey of Experience" from a time period of 30 years, who is ready to learn and to benefit from the strength and the power of a woman, who not to be broken or to hold one's ground, who is open to listen and to understand, I highly recommended this book from the depths of my heart.
"Connected to Source" is the second book of Tina Thurston. Her first book "Rose Marie Lynn and her Fallen Feline Friend" is a book for children, which, without to accuse, gives you a view in the soul of a foster child who searches for a safe place in his life. The lovely illustrations here and the cover from "Connected to Source" were designed by the artist Sanne Aßmann. Also, this book is on the top of my list of "books which enrich my life" and I recommend it unequivocally.
