Inspired Forgiveness

In this latest book, Karlene expands on her relationship with the Lord as she chronicles her childhood in Jamaica, meeting her mother and family for the first time in the UK, and challenges in Education, marriage, motherhood, and parenting. Her life has had its ups and downs, positives and negatives, challenges and triumphs. Through it all, she has clung to her Faith. In writing this autobiography, Karlene has had to go back and remember events, incidents, comments, and remarks made throughout her life. A journey in itself that results in reliving and revisiting trauma. Delving into hidden secrets not shared with anyone before. Dredging up painful memories, experiencing the pain and hurt and deciding what to do with it. Karlene has chosen forgiveness.

In this autobiography, Karlene reflects on the power of forgiveness as an act of love which sets us free and gives us peace. Forgiveness is a conscious decision to stop blaming, punishing or being angry with someone for something they have said or done to us. Not only do we need to use our mouths to say we forgive, but we must use our hearts to ensure that we extricate all grudges and bitterness from within--We can let go. We acknowledge the hurt and move on. By forgiving others, we forgive ourselves.
