Journey to America Carla Ingrid Richards

Dedicated to the brokenhearted! Do you believe that your innocence was taken from you? Have you ever thought you have wasted years of your life going from relationships after relationships? Did the toxicity of these relationships affect your spirit and soul? In your lifetime were you too ashamed to talk about it with anyone? Journey To America will talk about Carla Richard's young innocence. This would later play a part in how she dealt with life, family, and the demons who wanted to control her destiny. As a Born-again Christian, and spiritual caretaker of her family, Carla tells her story of having a dream of someday reuniting with her mother and father. Raised by an extended family as an infant, Carla grew up in a traditional family environment. She grew up feisty, yet naïve before being uprooted from her carefree lifestyle in the Caribbean. In these pages, she will share with you her sorrows and joys and pray that you will not have to experience the hell on earth she once traveled. Her hope is for those who have experienced brokenness in life to believe there are better choices for them. Some of the contents in this book are not intended to glamourize the lifestyle she lived. However, the main purpose of writing my book, is to informed young women, that God created them for a purpose. It is for you to seek him and find what his will for your life is. Psalms 34:18 says, The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. I can honestly say since Jesus Christ came into my life, I have truly been saved and transformed by the renewal of my mind.
