Beautiful Scars

Though faced with many challenges in her childhood and youth, Nylah was determined to make the best of her life in every way possible. But she met and fell in love with a colleague and friend who was very mean-spirited and wild. Nothing had prepared her for the intensity of sorrow she felt. It was only with the intervention of God''s love that she began to record her life story trying to capture the paradox of love and grief. These were scars. But what can she make of them? As Nylah exposes her deepest feelings and fears and the truth about her life and shattering disappointments, she appreciates the Scars as beauty within that ultimately bloomed into profound wisdom and love.Beautiful Scars is an homage to the woman she has become instead of the woman society has made her be.
