This book was based on the true story of a woman who found her way to life on the streets, through drugs and alcohol, and back again, transformed by the love of God and an active program of recovery. This is one womans story of redemption in which she overcomes the addictions of her heart by placing her trust, future, and hope faithfully in Jesus Christ. From lost to saved, from legalistic acts of worship to a loving relationship and trust in the Lord, true repentance and true forgiveness of her own personal sins led her out of the destructive and broken life of drugs, homelessness, love in all the wrong places. Out of the darkness of this world she finds light in the arms of Gods grace and mercy. Sharing her testimony in these chapters, she seeks to offer faith and truth as well as hope for a life lived day by day not perfectly but perfectly saved by a God who Is, Was, and always will Be exactly what all of our hearts most crave.

THE PLACE HOLLOWED OUT When born the occupied space in the human mind is comparatively empty considering immediately the five human senses begin sending signals for processing and storage and suddenly memories generated by those around us and referred to us as what we are taught become the decisions of behavior, that is, things we did, what we do and what we ought. A different moment for every human being but in due time we learn the process of choice. We’re convinced 1 plus 1 is 2 by the outside teacher, and acceptance is taught by an inner voice. A mind that comprehends stars hundreds of thousands of miles away but can appreciate raindrops. Calculates, speculates, contemplates but doesn’t know where a simple breeze starts or stops. So the spaces where numbers, letter arrangements, emotions and memories about love or hate provide chemical storage in each of us and is individually controlled as we influence our fate. Chemist, electrician, doctors, surgeons, undeniably the choices can make us weep or sing. Filling that place hollowed out in our mind with what we choose and whatever our life brings. Only a few will read what was intended to mean so much to so many but you may simple reject it. Go ahead read the political, the humor, the love, but don’t be surprised if it touches your spirit. The heart disclosed in this writing contains information for that place hollowed out in every mind. It may be only one simple inspiring little poem, perhaps hidden, but that’s for you to find.

A "stunning" (Hanif Abdurraqib), "unputdownable" (Mary Karr) meditation on queerness, family, and desire. How do you know if you are transgender? How do you know if what you want and feel is real? How do you know whether to believe yourself? Cyrus Dunham’s life always felt like a series of imitations—lovable little girl, daughter, sister, young gay woman. But in a culture of relentless self-branding, and in a family subject to the intrusions and objectifications that attend fame, dissociation can come to feel normal. A Lambda Literary Award finalist, Dunham’s fearless, searching debut brings us inside the chrysalis of a transition inflected as much by whiteness and proximity to wealth as by gender, asking us to bear witness to an uncertain and exhilarating process that troubles our most basic assumptions about identity. Written with disarming emotional intensity in a voice uniquely his, A Year Without a Name is a potent, thrillingly unresolved meditation on queerness, family, and selfhood.
