Seer and the Sword, the by Victoria Hanley
If you or someone you love suffers with depression and despair, or you just want to better understand those who live with depression, this is a book that will provide personal glimpses into the dark, tangled mindset and the all-consuming struggle against the quicksand of hopelessness that is typical for people suffering from depression. 124 POEMS FOR GOD takes the reader into the heart of that day-to-day struggle. From within the often-impenetrable darkness of an unrelenting despair, the author writes heart-to-heart poem-prayers, tenaciously believing in hope, seeking out the Love and Light she needs to carry on. This collection of poems weaves a moving story of that journey and the courage it took to keep showing up for her life despite the seemingly never-ending dark night of the soul. 124 Poems for God is ultimately a triumphant journey through dark adversity and despair to the safe ground of Love, and of finding hope, courage - and even wry humour - to keep moving forward, one tenacious prayer at a time.
