Shedding Light on the Darkness, Dealing with the Issues of Suicide (Paperback)

***This edition is a revision of the first. I rewrote it with the mindset of making it an easier read by cutting out a lot of the busyness of the first edition. My Story is better detailed, chronologically smoother and does not have the unnecessary topical breaks. The optional questions have been eliminated. I believe the reader is already coming to the text with their own questions. Again, I believe this edition will be more valuable because of the changes that were made and it takes only about 1 1/2 hours to read.*** This work was written out of genuine concern. It is intended to give hope, insight, support and healing to those who have been touched by suicide. My main goal is to aid in suicide prevention through enabling the reader to identify, help and save both those who are contemplating suicide and those who are likely to ponder it in the future. I believe that I have an insider's view of this devastating darkness called suicide. I have battled with it for over 20 years. My compelling desire is to help, support, and create a healing environment for those who have been destroyed by suicide and to aid in prevention whenever possible. In order to get the most out of this book, it's important to read it with an open mind. It has been written from my worldview and personal beliefs. These beliefs have kept me alive over the years and they continue to support me on a daily basis. A compilation of stories will be used throughout this book to help us understand this dark act we call suicide. It is my hope that you will find it both interesting and encouraging. I do not pretend to fully understand this enormous subject and this book is not intended to be all inclusive. My intent is to show there is hope for the hopeless, light for those in darkness, truth for those being lied to, and forgiveness for the guilt-laden.
