Journey Into Gratitude Finding My Sense of Self

"Journey into Gratitude" is five days before her seventeenth birthday a teenage girl marries the adult son of her foster parents. She needs parental permission to marry before the age of eighteen. Fortunately, her mother agrees to give consent for her daughter to get married, eliminating the need to involve her father who is serving a two-year prison sentence. This fortuitous love connection will provide the foundation she needs as she matures into a strong, independent woman and mother who will continue to thrive as she achieves her professional and personal goals.

Joannes Boman retired two years ago from her forty-three year career in Thermoplastics Distribution Sales shortly after publishing her first book, "Journey Away from Tragedy." Retirement allowed her the time to revisit her personal journals which provided the inspiration to write her second book, "Journey Into Gratitude."
