To the Edge is the author's chronicle of how she goes through her life giving so much of her time, love, energy and self to others but never doing for herself, nor accepting anything in return. She loses herself in her efforts to protect herself for fear of being vulnerable. Much to her shame and disappointment, she realizes that she is broken. Her family was the glue that held her together for years and suddenly, the family is no longer intact. Now she must pick up the pieces, silence the noise and quiet the storm within her. Through many valuable lessons, tapping into the church inside of her and pressing her way through the many days of dark solitude she learns that hurt and pain are a part of life, along with other things about herself. She realizes that God wants her to come to him as an empty cup before his full fountain and allow him to fill her and guide her to the edge so that she may soar. It is then that she finds the peace and joy that she has always longed for while learning that happiness is a choice. The transformation of her life is shared in hopes of encouraging other women to put more emphasis on taking care of themselves while caring for their families. It is also intended for mankind to be more in tune with themselves, to strive to be whole and not broken, and to push daily to make life's journey to the edge. The edge represents becoming one with God and seeking to be what he has called you to be while living and loving to the fullest without regret and with the peace and joy of God.
