“HOW TO JUMP FROM A FERRIS WHEEL
AND LAND ON YOUR FEET”





$10.97




Foreword

Yvonne Pierre

If you've ever asked yourself, "Lord, why me or what have I done so wrong to deserve this?", then How to Jump from a Ferris Wheel and Land on Your Feet, Vol. II is a powerful, life changing book for you.

If you are on a quest to find peace in your life, are seeking inspiration, searching for serenity, or simply enjoy reading inspirational stories, this anthology promises to enlighten and inspire you. How to Jump from a Ferris Wheel and Land on Your Feet, Vol. II contains liberating stories that will take you on a magnificent journey from trial to triumph.

I personally believe that peace and happiness is a state of mind and that we all have the ability to sustain a peace of mind in the midst of the worst storms.
Within the pages of How to Jump from a Ferris Wheel and Land on Your Feet, Vol. II are ten moving stories by ten extraordinary women from different walks of life who have all, at one point, asked themselves, "Why me?"

Journey with them as they share their incredible tales of adversity. Learn how they reached their destinations, where serenity and peace lives. The obstacles that each woman faced were very different in each story, yet very easy to relate to. It is humbling, inspiring, and empowering to re-live these challenges with these authors.

The feeling of triumph when victory was ultimately achieved is extremely joyful. This dynamic anthology offers hope that you, too, can find peace and success.
Blessings,

Yvonne Pierre

A.A. 12 Steps

1. We admitted we were powerless over alcohol - that our lives had become unmanageable.

2. Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.

3. Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him.

4. Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.

5. Admitted to God, to ourselves and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.

6. Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character.

7. Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings.

8. Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all.

9. Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others.

10. Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it.

11. Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscience contact with God as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out.

12. Having had a spiritual awakening as a result of these Steps, we tried to carry this message to others, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.

Your Aura is Blue


Spiritual and calm, you tend to live a quiet but enriching life.
You are very giving of yourself. And it's hard for you to let go of relationships.

The purpose of your life: showing love to other people.

Famous blues include: Angelina Jolie, the Dali Lama, Oprah

Careers for you to try: Psychic, Peace Corps Volunteer, Counselor!

Thanks!”

    LISTEN TO MY RADIO INTERVIEW!


    This interview is a brief history of my life my addiction, and how I began writing Addiction/Recovery Music! It’s about an hour long so relax. You can also pause it and listen at your leisure. It’s a touching interview, not necessarily for entertainment but for personal growth and insight into the plight of one Recovered Addict!

    Self taught, Vivian got her 1st Guitar at age nineteen, and the rest came naturally.

    "I sometimes feel like a late bloomer. Not because I have a new found talent, but because I was not able to focus on anything other things beside raising my 5 children for many years, of which only 2 remain home age 17 and 13. Ahhh...

    And working as An Addiction Counselor over 12 years! Though I've been substance free 14 years."

    "I never entirely feel far removed from the experience because of the swift and profoundly devastating mark it made on my soul."

    A native of Connecticut, Vivian now “Celebrates Life” on the West Coast. She has provided Music Therapy to Treatment Facilities and in other venues over 10 years on the East and West Coast. Vivian is a small town country girl at heart with “alotta’ soul!” "Being a single parent is and was difficult. But by Gods grace and lots of prayer and tears, I am proud of a job well done. Growing up, life was hard. I survived a lot of ugly days but I survived through using drugs, and becoming an over-achiever, workaholic, and Faith in a Higher Power.

    I had a 2 1/2 year crack cocaine addiction. Prior to that i dabbled here and there with marijuana, alcohol and pills. Mostly due to peer pressure and some secret death wish. Life was hard the only coping skill I had was prayer, thank God for that! I don’t say “I’m an addict” or, a “recovering addict anymore!” I have firmly come to believe that "we are not our afflictions!" Unless we believe so!"

    This music not only helps the person addicted understand his plight through the eyes of someone who has shared experiences, it is also geared to impact and inspire everyday people and give them an inside look and clarify the struggle of those who are currently entangled with abusing alcohol or other substances.

    .. This music is for everyone who has ever been, seen or tried drugs and alcohol and for those who have ever even thought of or are thinking of it.

    The “Faces Of Addiction” are ugly! Using drugs starts as fun, then turns into fun with problems. And then, just the problems stand in the place where the “fun” use to be, laughing at you in the face! No matter how bad your problems are, you can overcome. Never give UP!

    Drop me a line if you need some advice with your addiction problems! I AM AVAILABLE FOR DRUG AND ALCOHOL INTERVENTIONS! If you need help confronting a loved with their Addiction issues! Enjoy!

    THE LOSS OF HOPE

    Deep inside the heart, soul and mind of every person addicted to alcohol and or drugs, lies the loss of hope. One may wonder how a man or woman can reach this desolate and barren place of hopelessness.

    This place of demarcation marks the difference between truly living and mere existence or, merely existing.

    Pain and loss of determination destroy our will to live, therefore making addiction possible, even so, making it a necessity of existence for the hopeless.

    Hopelessness occurs when a man, woman or child, or even a suffering animal goes from a deliberate choice to live to succumbing or giving up in his life. Seeing it as a challenge, he cannot win. His failures, pains and disappointments have outweighed his joys, his pleasures.

    One of the 12 Promises of AA, NA, CA and the like is, “We Will Know a New Peace and a New Freedom.” And, “we will come to intuitively know how to handle the challenges in our life that use to baffle us.

    Using the 12 Step Program, these things have happened for me and countless others who have thoroughly followed this path.

    Full consciousness and hope for the future as well as in the now, return. The man or woman regains control of his life. He or she is able to live again, experiencing joy and happiness.

    There is a way to make peace with our pains and disappointments. There is a way of letting go and moving forward and living a joyous and fulfilling life, armed for success.

    Here’s “How IT WORKS” be HONEST with yourself about your addiction and the reasons you use. Be OPEN MINDED, give the 12 step program a trial. This program comes with a misery back guarantee. And lastly be WILLING, willing to trust, willing to try.

    GET CLEAN, GET SOBER TODAY~~~~YOU COULDN’T DO IT FOR A BETTER PERSON! YOU!

    LOVE PEACE AND SOBRIETY
