"Thankfully, there are wonderful glimpses throughout the work in which we feel drawn into the lives, struggles, pain, failures, and successes of real people, real problems, and real pain. We engage with them as they engage in deep soul-searching and grow in understanding that "what we hold on to, holds us." These glimpses draw us into wanting to enter their worlds and know these women better. Hopefully, we want to look more deeply into our own hearts and our own worlds of unforgiveness and forgiveness."
