Letter to a Daughter Luciana Reis

Letter to a Daughter was born of a daughter's intense need to heal her past wounds and resolve her feelings for her father. The author has chosen gratitude as her way of erasing sad memories. Inspired by Rudyard Kipling's poem If, Luciana weaves words, conjuring up loving images as an invitation to review the events we have experienced, creating a new way of reading them, calm and thankful, and erasing our painful memories. She hands us these lines in the earnest hope that both parents and children will make this testimony their own."Life tastes different when we live it out of gratitude, building the future, accepting the reality we have inherited and making it part of ourselves."
