The Long Journey

Often in our life journeys we wrestle with intense struggles. Fears and frustrations sometimes wrestle with inner peace and joy. Each day we find ourselves endeavoring to put on masks that cover our inner pain. Many times we find that we are unable to express our feelings to significant others. Dr. Joan Harrington has spent many years in her personal life journey of ministry among those who have experienced deep sadness and intense struggles. She has used poetry as her own heart expression of these struggles. In her poems, Dr. Joan has expressed these emotional struggles in a way that the reader will identify with as his or her own struggles. This book of poems written over a span of 78 years will assist the reader in finding a way to his or her pain, happiness, faith, and other significant emotions in their own personal life journeys.
