"When healing myself from the wounding time inflicts over and over again, I remain connected with the ancestors, their wisdom (and man's foolishness) and understand the place that ritual, prayer, and ceremonies have in protecting us from the hidden aspects we just can not control in life. For me Life is a god/goddess and the happy, healthy, and whole human is the one who understands this very real truth and begins to fulfill one's purpose in relation to their god/goddess called Life, the Great One. Knowing life is a purpose of all of existence. My books give you African proverbs compiled as simple daily guidelines for knowing life and deepening your connection with its sacred aspect."-Sacred Woman Abena
