“When is Strong – Strong Enough? How to Push Through the Pain” Author, Souraya Christine

                                          NCM Publishing

Presents:

“When is Strong – Strong Enough? How to Push Through the Pain”
Author, Souraya Christine

SYNOPSIS 

When is Strong – Strong Enough gives a riveting account of the life events of author, Souraya
Christine. Although Souraya is not a celebrity of any sort, her mission, with this book, is to
provide an avenue of self-help for any young female who may be struggling with molestation,
abuse, lies, promiscuity, alienation, death, teen pregnancy, domestic violence, or any other traumatic situation.

Souraya’s family was what we call a “sweep it under the rug” kind of people. No one really
discussed issues, which caused Souraya to “deal” with her experiences the best way she
knew how – on her own. It wasn’t until adulthood that she sought counseling, however, each
time she left with the feeling that her level of knowledge surpassed that of the therapist who
intended to help her. As a result, she was left feeling unsatisfied and un-rescued.

This book details Souraya’s bad decisions, wild ways, and subsequent recklessness as she
learned to cope with her tragedies, process pain, and ultimately forgive and love herself. She is
still a work in progress, but as a recently baptized Christian, she is slowly learning to trust again
and to extend her new-found love to others. This is a gripping true story that will have you on
an emotional rollercoaster from beginning to end!
