Because I Turned 53: Thoughts That Keep Me Alive is a collection of raw and tender reflections from Erricka Bridgeford Ñ mother, grandmother, mediator, teacher, and co-founder of the Baltimore Peace Movement.
In these pages, she offers numbered thoughts, each standing alone like a meditation card: brief yet profound, sometimes playful, sometimes prayerful, always honest. They are invitations to pause, to breathe, and to find peace in the middle of chaos.
With a rhythm that mirrors life itself, some pages carry only a few words, while others open into deeper streams of wisdom. Readers can enter anywhere, discovering a thought that resonates, a reminder to love themselves, or a spark of courage to keep going.
This book is both a companion and a map Ñ a testament to survival, reinvention, and the power of choosing life, again and again., thought, God, spirit, love, self-love, creation, Erricka Bridgeford| 9781257790234 | 137PAGES
