Stefka, an author of self-help books, has written these poems in the form of affirmations to help the healing process. These poems are very powerful and to the point. There is no time for processing the message, as it is absorbed immediately. She uses powerful, positive words that aim at shifting people's thoughts into positive territory within their psyche, which in turn brings joy and happiness - and with time, peace and harmony, uniting with the Divine within.

A Collection of Stories is the second in a series of children's books by Stefka Harp. Like the first book, most of the stories have been passed down from one generation to the next within Stefka's family. Others are taken from the experiences of the author herself, as well as those of friends and family members. The author believes the messages the stories contain are universal truths for all ages.

This book is not only to do with forgiveness, but incorporates a lot more - negative feelings such as envy, jealousy, slander and the like. The negative feelings and thoughts released propagate, and there is an ongoing perpetuation in life about which we wonder. To change one's thinking we have to become aware of our thoughts and start to break the habit of negative thinking - turning it into love and loving thoughts instead. Forgiveness is a part of this process.

This set of poems is all to do with gratitude, as the title suggests. It is beneficial to count your blessings every day and give thanks. Just by being grateful for your blessings, the energy released attracts more blessings. The Divine within wants us to be happy, and when you are grateful for something it means you are happy. Therefore the whole universe aligns and opens up to deliver more blessings and happiness to you.
