111

111: brave enough is a new age love story centred around the common "committed" couple - one, naively attached, and the other, the half-committed narcissist; exploring his own version of the relationship. So what happens when the reality is kept secret? Past the honeymoon stage, the nine years of pre-engagement, the engagement, the wedding ceremony and the sharing of vows. Past the birth of their children. Well into society's perceived "security" of the title and comforts of being a committed, married, parenting couple. What then? How does one rise from the deception and the lies?  

111: brave enough is a raw and emotional insight into the damage of infidelity, and the enduring process one takes to rise from it. Written in lyrical poetry, 111: brave enough explores the roles of hope and desperation, and the psychological processing that occurs at each stage. The revelation, realisation, reclamation, realignment and release. The unnamed character's transition from fairy tale dream to ravaged reality is underpinned by the catalyst of trauma, triggering ourselves back into our own keeping. That through the breaking, we are gifted the opportunity to rehome, to reconnect to our own truths, to live authentically. To realign our 1: mind, 1: body and 1: spirit with our values. To reclaim our lives and to live fully again, with or without the people who gifted us that pain. All contained neatly in 111 pages, and illustrated with the triquetra image on the front page, 111: brave enough is a heart wrenching, empowering story of the highs and lows of love and romance, and the ability to rise again, when we are brave enough to embrace our realities. brave enough to be. just as we are. our own.
