Why 'Born To Return The Gift' Is Relevant

Born To Return The Gift is about a middle aged woman who finds herself at a crossroad in life. As an African American female with mixed heritage, she has difficulty understanding her place in the world. When she's diagnosed with depression and post traumatic stress disorder, she wonders how could this be? Life has had its difficulties, but doesn't the term PTSD usually refer to veterans of combat? The only battle Nyima has ever fought was for  survival, and at this stage she refuses to be labeled  emotionally and mentally damaged.

A recurring dream she's been having would offer her a sense of peace, but it's a nightmare she won't allow herself to be captivated by. Within the comfort zone of her son's family she is lulled into complacency and the nightmare finally unfolds. She discovers the root source of her depression traces back to a childhood incident of molestation and then the marital domestic violence that followed - never feeling worthy of anything better than what she got. In facing her own demons Nyima comes to understand the power to change her disposition and direction has been with her all along.

The relevancy of this book is that often times things do occur in life that can be disabling. Even when we can muster the strength to go through the motions of daily life, something in our spirit is inevitably touched for good or bad. When we fail to forgive those who have betrayed us, or worse - ourselves  for the choices we've made,  we all suffer. A paradigm is created  that is projected in everything we do and could reflect negatively towards others. Faith is a powerful antidote for overcoming destructive behaviors.

The Way We Are


Distinquishes us a a human race created in 
God's Image.

There hath no temptation taken you 
but such as is common to man;

but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.
 I Corinthians 10:13

Another 5 Star Review for 'End All To Be All'

Format: Paperback
This is a story written with style, wit and insight. It is so much more than a book about addiction and it is not about religion, although both have their parts to play. Catherine shows us how God is not someone you meet in a church but a living entity that is with you everywhere you are. the way she used scriptures to show you how He works in a life is amazing.

Once again, she takes you and drops you smack,dab, in the middle of the action. You are not a voyeur, you are a participant in her character's journey of self revelation and enlightenment. If you want to read a book that celebrates the resilience of the human spirit and overcoming the odds then you will not want to miss this one.
