This book is a continuation of the first book THE MIRROR EST. 2018. I wanted to continue the journey of this broken bond between myself and my teenage daughter, as well as my transition from military to civilian life. This is a mental/psychological tool to add to your toolbox to take with you in your everyday life for those who suffer any type of trauma.
An inspirational guide of leadership/motivation/survival, and determination.
I guarantee whoever reads this book. There is some message in the next few entries that you will reflect back onto and that is why there are so many broken mirror pictures in the book for you to just look into and reflect how many broken mirrors have you broken and how many broken mirrors do you have in your life?
Mental health, PTSD I said it the best. It’s like a life sentence without parole. The demons will never go away. They will always be deep in your heart in your soul.. l
