I didn't know then, but have been blessed to learn that my journey of healing was going to be filled with the opportunity to create that book for myself. A symbolic tangible work of art that symbolizes all of the pain that my family went through, and the peace we have come to find.
I finally received the first copy of my book and can't wait to one day drive it to the cliff in my dream. I am humbled to continue this journey of healing and appreciate all of the love and support I have received.
For anyone who wants a copy of our stories on the blog in paper back or ebook form, here is a link to the book options.

It is also available for a Nook on Barnes and Noble (ebook only):

The dream was symbolic of your hurling your pain away through writing about it and giving it to the world. (I have done the same with my awful experience.). I don't think you literally have to throw your book over a cliff. Unless you really feel you must, of course.
