Book Description
Growing up going form one foster home to another like a game piece on a no-win board can shatter your view of yourself and the world. In my memoir, "I Swear to tell the truth, the Whole Truth, and nothing but the Truth, So Help Me God" I expose the thoughts and feelings I experienced as I struggled over the past two years to make sense of a life shattered by childhood abandonment, neglect, and abuse. It's difficult for people who live in secure homes to understand how being deprived of simple things like safety, security, and warmth can make you seek these things even in destructive ways. Even with the support of different social services, nothing seemed to fill the emptiness growing inside me, an emptiness I desperately crave to fill. For the past two years I struggled to escape the pain of being unwanted by seeking comfort in the world of alcohol, drugs, and sexual addiction three worlds that have nearly destroyed me. Keywords: Memoir; diary; Journal; Autobiography; Sex Addiction; Drug Addiction; Alcoholism; Childhood Abuse; Mental Illness; Bipolar.

Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 198
Book Description
All of twenty-three, Tara's life takes a turn when her law teacher invites her to join a leading law firm as a young associate. For a smart and dedicated law student like Tara, the prospect of rubbing shoulders with the nation's top legal practitioners is nothing less than a dream come true. Tara's foray into the world of courtrooms and legal proceedings is not without its fair share of delights and disappointments. On the one hand, she gets to work with her idol Meherdad E. Warren, her mentor-senior Tehlina and a host of cool friends. On the other hand, there is the stuck up and inefficient senior Praizeen Asthana and a rather obnoxious, backstabbing colleague Raj Parker, who are determined to make her already strenuous work life more difficult. Away from the maddening buzz of office politics, in the courtrooms where Tara gets to study the commendable tactics of legal stalwarts, she runs into Yash. And even before Tara can realise it, she has already fallen for this witty and charming young man who has the makings of a brilliant lawyer. However, all is not well in this paradise. Hidden behind the exterior of Yash's sanguine personality is a secret that will sweep Tara off her feet. But more importantly, Tara must first learn to tackle her own demons, simplify her life and find her true calling. The novel is a bittersweet narrative of coming to terms with what the heart truly wants and taking that leap of faith.

Sometimes as parents and leaders, we get so caught up in the day-to-day activities that we do to carry out our jobs, we don't see some of the places that are broken in our own lives. We often miss those spots where we need to take a closer look at ourselves. We wear masks and phony smiles, and attempt to portray that all is good when in reality... we're dying on the inside and don't know how to fix what's wrong. And worse... sometimes we don't even know what's "really" wrong until a truth is exposed.
