A Life Beyond Limits: Overcoming Private Pain God’s Gift   I dedicate this poem to anyone who deals with or has dealt with a relative who has or had special needs. You are not alone. I know your pain. I know your struggle.    Having a child with special needs can be hard at times to believe God is the one who can fulfill their true destiny   It’s hard at times to comprehend why society judges them But I stand to see how the Creator who made all men Can do great things with them… And they can make it like all men    The stares and the whispers in the stores, malls and even in some homes The special ones are God’s creation and yes they are truly blessed   So I say to you it’s only a test, a test of your faith Hold on and you will begin to see why they are here The purpose the Almighty destined for them to be… They are fearfully and wonderfully made So take it day by day and remember to keep the faith   God’s Gift   Patience, love and kindness can be developed with a child   Who has certain challenges… Begin to embrace what you continue to face You will win in the end, especially if you show love to them

A Life Beyond Limits: Overcoming Private Pain
A Life Beyond Limits: Overcoming Private Pain was dedicated to every teenager “who feels that they are forgotten, misunderstood or mistake,” says Nataki. A Life Beyond Limits: Overcoming Private Pain is filled with stories and poems based on Nataki’s personal experiences and journeys. I believe that Nataki did an excellent job in presenting her message. Both her stories and poems were very thought provoking, emotional and heart warming.

I like the way that her book, A Life Beyond Limits: Overcoming Private Pain was broken up into a story and poem to make it even more interesting for the reader. It was a very easy read. I think that anyone who has experienced what Nataki has experienced will relate very much to what has been underlined within the contents of her book, A Life Beyond Limits: Overcoming Private Pain.

Congratulations Nataki on overcoming your pain, at the end of every journey or struggle, we all get back up again! Nataki, indeed represents the very same depiction and theory.
