There is Hope Beyond the Fog J H Leander

In most cases, fog is used in movies to entice the hairs on the back of out neck to stand on end. It warns us that evil is lurking around, ready to impart some monster from behind the darkness. We begin to cower in our seats and grasp the arms of our chair or the person sitting next to us tighter.

But looking at fog, in its purpose, fog is like the wrapping paper around a gift. We don't know what's beyond the paper but with hands tearing the pieces back, we see the treasure just beyond. M.o

There is Hope Beyond the Fog is a look at a life destined for greatness, but lost in a sea of abuse, misfortune and despair. How pond scum became a self-inflicted term for one mistreated who yearned for love and normalcy and found it by holding onto the anchor of her soul and breaking through the fog.
