I Begin

"I Begin: poetry and prayers of a woman's journey through loss and grief" is a meditation on life, love, loss, and incredible perseverance. In this, Ginny Gaskill's first poetry collection, she chronicles a journey of devastating loss that ultimately leads not only to a deeper faith in herself and in life, but increased wellbeing and sense of belonging in a community of artists. Ginny recounts her experience as a "rebuilding of soul," a need and a quest that should interest any reader truly engaged in the sorrows and joys of a life well lived. It is through speaking her truth that Ginny Gaskill has survived-and thrived. She invites us to begin, and begin again, as we enter into that shared experience where life takes on new meaning through opening to all that love holds.
