Once Upon A Time...Never Comes Again
Book Summary
"Dear Mom and Dad: As I stand before you, I bring to you our family story...a story that has become as sad to me as this monument before me. Yet, for now in my existence, I shall continue fulfilling my purpose here on earth one heartbeat at a time, even without my siblings. I tried hard to keep harmony and balance in our family but can only do so much."
-- Diane
Book Details
Probably, the best time to write is in fact at a time when you are depressed. It is at that moment that you dive into the core of your emotion -- touching the anger and betrayal that has been bestowed on you -- and scream out I will NOT tolerate this! Writing at the darkest times of your life could be hard work, however, with persistence it can bring you to see the light. My therapy was in writing every single night. However, there were times that I returned to my keyboard and just stared into it with a blank expression, otherwise known as writer’s block. Every time this happened, I knew I had to take a break……sometimes often. And then, suddenly, all it took was one magical word that would lead me to a sentence; that sentence would take me to a paragraph. Of course, every new development in my life brought me to the next chapter of my book. At some of my saddest moments, I knew I had to continue writing until I felt accomplished and emotionally stronger.
Some of my most unexpected moments of thoughts came to me while driving my car, sitting on the bus to work, or in the middle of the night. I always took advantage of this window of opportunity and would immediately jot it down so as not to forget my thoughts.
I’d like to think that my book contains three parts: vengeance, forgiveness, and closure -- something I never could have had without writing my journal. I sincerely hope my book is encouraging to people that need to find a way out of their depression through writing therapy as an alternative to tranquilizers or therapists.
