About the Book
Life is full of challenges, but probably the most difficult to handle and heal from is major loss. In separate tragedies, Lilibet lost her home and possessions; her 24yr old daughter; and her 18yr marriage. If that was not enough, Lily also went through dramatic health challenges: surviving cancer and learning to live with a heart condition. And yet she is one of the most passionate and happy people you can meet! Lily made a decision along the way not to be a victim of life, and instead to be a hero and you can too! Lily, in particular, embraced forgiveness as a key to living a happy life. Lily’s passions for teaching and organic farming have been both her therapy and her driving force to happiness. Although Lily started writing this book in 2017 it was completed during the time when the COVID 19 pandemic had hit the world. So many people have experienced the loss of loved ones, family members, colleagues and friends, and are struggling to find peace and happiness again in their lives. It is hoped that Lily’s story will provide the inspiration for you to courageously work through loss and grief to ultimately be the shining diamond you were meant to be on this earth. This book will take you through many emotions as you journey with Lily, but leave you with joy in your heart.
