Cracks in the Red Glass

The author finds herself on her own, after thirteen years of abuse at the hands of various people. She realized she knew everything about how to survive and nothing about how to live.

She went to therapy with a college professor. Recovering from abuse is not a success-only story. She reverted to old defensive tactics many times after analysis. She found love but hid who she was because she didn't know how to be a wife and mother.

Ten years after her wedding, a tidal wave threatens to drown the marriage, but that is when it genuinely began to grow. She decides to be herself. The story is about how she and her spouse overcame, not only her childhood mistreatment but also their former destructive patterns.

She confronts her sexual abuse, names it, and describes it to her partner. We discover it as she brings it up to herself. And the truth sets her free. Speaking it aloud burned off any remaining residual shame and blame directed at herself. You will experience this with her.

This is a book about how one woman crawled out of the ugly underbelly of abuse to face the sun and step into joy. It is a tale of courage, healing, and hope.
