Marilyn follows a Christian Path, with love of the natural world central to her spirituality.

A grandmother, Marilyn wants her grandchildren and all children to value this world and enjoy it as much as they can, with the ability that they have.

For this reason, royalties from sale of this book will be donated to Medecins Sans Frontieres who work tirelessly throughout the world, in crisis situations, to mend broken bodies, many of whom are children.

Marilyn also enjoys other spiritual perspectives, including Yoga, and Sufi Dances for Universal Peace. She has attended a Buddhist silent retreat.

She loves reading the poetry of Rumi, Kabir and others. They all, along with Christianity, espouse unity and love. Oh that the world would listen!
