Years ago, I wrote "Through the Journey" on a piece of paper. I had no idea what it meant at the time or why I even wrote it down. As the years went by, it hit me that "Through the Journey" is life’s journey. A journey with no defined beginning, middle, or end. What you do on that journey matters, and it has an impact on others. Once I understood that there is power in sharing stories, it was easy to see why I had always been passionate about motivating and encouraging others. I just never thought I would be bold enough to share my stories with the world.
I love to journal, and from journaling, I began to write stories. That is when my vision for Through the Journey became clearer. I would make Through the Journey a series of novels about real-life issues that women face: love, loss, heartbreak, happiness, sadness, and all other kinds of emotions. These would be books about intimate human experiences. Then, I came up with the book title All Things Come to an End.
I started writing the characters, their personalities, quirks, and experiences; from there, I was able to expound on their stories, especially Destinee Clark, the main character. Destinee learns through her pain and struggles that some things are beyond her control.
She tries her best to deal with life as it hits her, sometimes being knocked down, but she continues to push through. This proves that sometimes you have to let your faith be stronger than fear, which is not always easy. That's what I love about this book. It's real! You can feel everything Destinee experiences. She has ups and downs and is unsure about whether she will make it through.
"All things come to an end so there can be beautiful new beginnings." When life hits us, we tend to see past the blessings that come our way because we spend too much time focusing on the bad. Winnie the Pooh said it best: "Life is a journey to be experienced, not a problem to be solved". Destinee's story shows how when things get rough along, this journey is called life. There is only one thing to do: take one step at a time. Don’t take life for granted. Live it with no regrets. But learn along the way.
