Laurie Hotchkiss Cassar Biography

Born the youngest of 3 children, the only girl. Spoiled by my father, my mother began to resent me at an early age. In her own confused and slighted feeings, she used my older brothers to pay me back. They were never taught to respect me, never will. We (the chidren) were the pawns in my parents own abusive, alcoholic life. I do not say this to blame, they were simply products of there own abusive, alcoholic upbringing. And so my life began... I today am a 44 yr old divorced woman. I have survived child molestation, mental health issues (chronic depression) , addiction (in NA) , to name a few. I believe in learning from adversity, working on myself and myy own demons, and becoming the change I wish to see in the world. I am currently grieving the loss of both my parents, Father died Dec.14th,2010, my Mom died May 17th,2011. I will be for some time.)

The Best Poem Of Laurie Hotchkiss Cassar

Whispering Prayer

I stand upon the mountain
And hear your whispers in the wind
Time, as known is standing still
Please hold me deep within

To you my Lord in heaven
I claim a noble plea
I have chosen to walk beside you
Will you in turn walk with me?

This battered soul is aching
To be taken under wings
Of one who knows lifes trials
And knows of better things

Please take my sorted life
And do with it what you may
For no one else can truly know
Or could ever guide my way.
