Denied Doesn't Define (ePub)

This book of verses is a straight-shooting approach to self-empowerment to help us maintain resilience, confidence and self-esteem, when confronted with Denials and Rejections because someone decided to make you their target of abuse (mental, physical, or verbal).
The book is written in a short, concise manner for people of all ages, background, race and gender. The verses present a humorous, but powerful way to cope with the Denials in our lives.
The inspiration for this book was a series of obviously unjust DENIED, DENIED, DENIED, while entangled in a legal battle with one of the corporate giants, without an attorney.
Each DENIED left me feeling so downhearted and depressed, because I knew the DENIEDs were based on lies and injustice and it was an attempt to silence me as I navigated through the injustice system.
One day after receiving perhaps the 7th DENIED, I told my son "This is crazy. I have to find a way to turn all these DENIEDs into something positive." Then I wondered, can anything positive come out of that negativity. When I thought about others who, in various situations, have been the target of another person's desire to oppress through their unfair Denials or Rejections, I began to write.
We can't allow others to take away our self-esteem. My battle is on-going. This book is a first step to my emotional recovery.
Recovery is challenging but possible because...
DENIED DOESN'T DEFINE
