Through my experience as a healthcare provider I have noticed a recurrent theme -a common thread if you will- that runs through everyone, tying us all together. That theme or thread is our desire to HEAL and CONNECT with ourselves and others. Every individual I have had the pleasure to work with, no matter how different, unique, or broken (physically or emotionally), wishes in some way to be accepted, understood, and integrated into a healthy, supportive and loving community. So, I started writing. While the stories I write focus on the development of emotional intelligence and healthy boundaries in children, the messages are designed to impact teenagers and are insight-fully profound for adults as well. The mission of each story is to promote a higher level of inner awareness through asking questions and self-reflection. Healing, reconciliation, and love is the revolving theme. The purpose of this book is to cultivate HEALING and CONNECTION while promoting EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE through HEALTHY BOUNDARIES. The stories within demonstrate how to develop and apply EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE and HEALTHY BOUNDARIES in real world scenarios. Through these stories, I hope to encourage personal development in everyone, especially children, by teaching how to ACCEPT, UNDERSTAND and INTEGRATE what truly makes each one of us special: our differences. Learn how at-risk youth and children with special needs have inspired a broader definition of love. CONNECT and HEAL a little more with each story. Recognize that EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE and HEALTHY BOUNDARIES are the foundation of a balanced and joyful existence. Good tidings on your journey.
