A dream come true…
As I pulled into my driveway, I was thrilled to see three boxes sitting on the front porch. I could barely contain myself. I’d received the Fed Ex tracking number the day before. My books had finally arrived.
This journey began more than 30 years ago when I started writing about the devastation of losing my husband, Larry, the time I spent in a psychiatric hospital, and the love and support that enabled me to persevere.
For three decades I dreamed of bringing hope to people struggling with mental illness and opening doors to resources for support and treatment.
I tore open the box and looked inside. I was speechless. Forty copies of my book, “Where the Water Meets the Sand,” lined up neatly, beautifully. Proof that dreams really can come true.
For an instant, I could hear Larry’s voice in my head, “Girl, you did good. Just as you promised. I knew you would.”
Tears eyes. I am so sure he had been watching you with pride.
We are so proud of you Tyra
So excited for you! Can’t wait to read it and am very proud of you!
So excited to be holding your book in my hands now. You did “do good.” Larry would be so proud.
Can’t put the book down. Outstanding, powerful, and inspirational-after two hours of nonstop reading.
I always knew you to be a special person.
Glad I was able to see you this past week and am enjoying your book.
How wonderful that you are able to keep your promises! I look forward to reading this!! 🙂
