Faith Fear Fortune is based on a true story about the power of the human spirit, which triumphs in spite of all obstacles when we put our faith into the hollow spaces our broken hearts have left. Journey with Anna as she faces her fears with the help of her furry best friend, who she thought was lost in death forever. This book will resonate loudly with dog lovers, and those facing challenging circumstances in their own life.
Over a single year, I faced abuse, witnessed the suicide of my partner, my best friend Bella died, and I couldn't work because of post-traumatic stress disorder. At the time these events, experienced together, seemed like too much to bear. Having lost it all, staring into the abyss of my empty life, I began to slowly rebuild. Through this story, I share how I got my life back and found joy. It wasn't easy but it's possible and isn't 'possibility' in the face of unfathomable circumstances truly what's needed the most? Fantastic as these events may seem, this book is based on my own lived experience.
The story starts in my hometown of Toronto, Canada, a city for which I have great affection. The names have been changed, purely out of respect for those involved, but I can assure you of the narrative's overall authenticity. As you read this story, I encourage you to have an open mind because not everything in life is as it seems, or is what you've been conditioned to believe.
At the very least, I hope that by reading my story, you're encouraged to consider life's possibilities. I also wish that if you're facing difficulties in your own life, reading these words may offer you some form of comfort. Whatever you're facing, you're not alone and there is a future that's brighter than your past. Follow your faith, get comfortable facing what truly scares you, and you will find the answers you're looking for. You will find the meaning in it all.
