Announcement from the publisher Sugati Publications
What turning points have you faced in your life?
We will all encounter dilemmas or crises in relationships, love, marriage, parenting, childbearing, career or illness in which we must make life-changing decisions.
When One Door Closes--Reflections from Women on Life’s Turning Points is about the significant and often difficult choices women face throughout the lifespan. The unique stories told by the authors in their own voices relate a common connection among women. This anthology includes stories from women who have learned how to face transitions, to cope with loss, to forgive, to find love, and to let go. In the final analysis, these women find peace with their decisions or with themselves.
When One Door Closes--Reflections from Women on Life’s Turning Points is a collection of essays and poems from 53 women from diverse backgrounds that speak to women of all ages as they journey through life. Editor Terri Spahr Nelson has spent the last thirty years as a psychotherapist, educator and author helping women to face difficult challenges and to find peace in their lives. In this latest book, Ms. Spahr Nelson illuminates the issues that women have in common. She has created an anthology that shows how women carry on despite the challenges and uncertainties in their lives. Throughout this inspiring work, she gives readers an opportunity to reflect on the lessons learned from each woman’s story and also provides questions for further contemplation. “This book is for your mind and for your heart,” Spahr Nelson writes. “It is for you to read by yourself on your own life’s journey or to share with others for connection and reflection. This book offers a timely reminder for all women: no matter what happens in life, when one door closes, another will open.”
