PHILADELPHIA, January 14, 2003 (PRIMEZONE) -- "The Second Time Around" by Tamika Andrea Barr (now available through 1stBooks Library) was created through personal weakness and encourages readers to build on their personal strengths, so be prepared to take a walk through the dark side to reach the brightest light.
This book symbolizes the cross that one bares when born in the `slum.' "The Second Time Around" was created to assure every living being that God is real and The Almighty can exist in everyone's life, regardless of who or what one may be; but Barr admits that one's love for The Almighty has to be genuine in order to for one to hear or feel the presence of the Lord.
This book reflects Barr's pain, her wounds and transgressions, of the hardships she has endured. Her faith in God is the sword to defeating her many demons. Her heart is the base in which God communicates with her. Her mind is the base in which her demons try to attack.
"The Second Time Around" was written through bloodshed and tears from her personal trials and tribulations, for the soul's purpose of reaching deep into the hearts of others' lives who welcome this book of inspirational poetry.
This is Tamika Andrea Barr's first book, but certainly not her last. She leaves one lasting impression to the reader through this debut collection: We have to be still enough to hear what God has to say.
