The Joy of Being
tells of Hildegard Caringi's poignant memoirs/biography of post WW II experiences, including a vineyard of poems and short stories covering, love, the music of the soul, family and embers of the past, war and peace, celebrating nature, friendship's special moments, faith, overcoming hardship, humor, historical moments, dreams and nightmares, Holiday thoughts, and Christmas and the spirit within. It's a refreshingly different collection of poems and short stories. Highly original, she speaks of simple touching moments that often go unnoticed, covering a loving and sometimes troubled landscape of a devoted family life. A diverse compilation of Hildegard's inspirational Christmas poems and her various uplifting Christmas stories come alive, dealing with themes that embrace faith, kindness, courage, dignity, and integrity. |
