Reflections Of A Broken Mirror

Her Silence is BROKEN. Her voice is now heard. Echoing loud, vibrant and FREE. A decade's long journey will now be told. from successfully single to married with five children in one year. Chronicling homelessness, marital affairs, grief, loss, divorce, and joy. All while learning to listen to that still small voice. Crying God where are you. Learning to find him in the murkiest of waters. These are her personal reflections.

Poetry that has been written from the experiences, ideas, and beliefs of Kalai.

"John and Christ administered baptism totins corpore submersione, by the submission of the whole body The very word 'baptize' signifies to immerse entirely, and it is certain that immersion was the practice of the ancient Church." John Calvin "The Greek word baptizo means 'immerse' or 'plunge', and the word baptisma means 'immersion'." Martin Luther "Immersion of the whole body was used from the beginning, which expresses the force of the word 'baptize', whence John baptized in a river. It was afterward changed into sprinkling, though it is uncertain when or by whom." Ulrich Zwingli "Baptism is immersion in water." Philip Melancthon "It is true that there is no express command to baptize infants in the New Testament, no express record of the baptism of infants, and no passages so stringently implying it that we must infer from them that infants were baptized." B. B. Warfield "There is no Biblical basis for infant baptism-this tradition is simply an old error of the church." Karl Barth

'I attacked her much like those horribly dressed women on Jerry Springer, including the shoving and yelling. Although, I believe I was far better dressed and much more dignified than the people on television. At one point, I grabbed (the trollop) so forcefully I literally threw her from her shoes. It reminded me of the Wicked Witch of the East with her ruby slippers left behind.' Reflections in a Broken Mirror explores the damage of verbal, physical, and sexual abuse. While Melanie suffered from being wounded by others, she also struggled with the side effects of prescription drugs. Her personal insight and wit are sprinkled throughout the memoir.

But when the boy, Lock, shows up at Ciela’s school, he has no memory of that night, and no clue that a single piece of mirrored glass is taking his life apart. Ciela decides to help him, which means hiding the truth about that night. Because Ciela knows who assaulted her, and him. And she knows that her survival, and his, depend on no one finding out what really happened.
