Miriam Stichel 

In May 2024 I was moments away from taking my own life.
After a lifetime of abuse, betrayal, assaults causing pregnancies, miscarriages, domestic violence, losing everything I owned, cancer & ongoing health problems, I felt completely broken.
I had given away my belongings, cancelled everything & left home with no intention of returning.

Then I received a message from a Facebook friend I had never met. He sent a few kind, uplifting words & asked how I was feeling. I burst into tears. Strangers nearby stopped to comfort me. Something inside me changed.
That message saved my life. I chose to give life one more chance.

Since then, I have chosen myself, my wellbeing & the things that bring me joy.

I started writing in 1988 & eventually published 5 of my 70+ books & 40 of my 300+ songs.
Through my lyrics & books, I hope to inspire others to choose love, hope, healing, & self worth.

You are not alone.There are more of us who have suffered, survived & chosen to rise again.

Love, Miriam
