Book excerpt: Author Margaret Chann House has experienced a great deal of hurt and trauma in her life, but she has chosen to turn that pain into positive energy through her life in helping children and through expression in verse. In Little Girl Lost, Strong Woman Found, House explores themes of grief, love, life, hope, inspiration, and loving oneself while dealing with traumatic, life-changing events. Based on the events and realities of her life, these verses offer a glimpse into her heart and soul, through which she hopes other survivors of trauma will gain comfort, support, and inspiration. She seeks to give hope to individuals of all ages, letting them know that they too can find the courage and strength to overcome the obstacles in their lives. This poetry collection presents realistic and inspirational poems about surviving trauma, pain, and grief and shows trauma survivors that success is within them, no matter what. I too grew up with hurt and pain in my life, But somehow I was, at times, successfully a daughter, mother, girlfriend, and wife. I am no more special than you, If I can do it then you can too. You have to believe in yourself and put in the hard work to succeed, You have to have strength as well as the want and the need. Life is too short to hang on solely to the past, Make happy, special moments, they are the ones that are important and will last. If you work through the pain, you can eventually leave it behind, That is when true happiness you will find
