Life's journey had become a mess, but they were determined to fix their crowns. The" fix" began with the realization that they were under construction. They evaluated their gems: jacinth, sapphire, topaz, amethyst, ruby, onyx, emerald, and diamond. The gems are all beautiful, but have no rational order per se. Instead of living life by taking charge of destiny, they allowed life to take charge of them. Through retrospect, the journey of circumspection began. As you indulge in this book, know that you are embarking upon a beautiful love story. It expresses a renewed intimacy between underserving lovers who are seeking an agape relationship. Also, an intimacy between friends evolves into a uniquely extended family structure. Through the eyes of broken women and men, a renewed relationship is sought with the lover of their souls as they discover their purpose-filled lives.
