Description

Leila grew up on a farm and lived an ordinary life with her parents and siblings in the Philippines. When her mother was diagnosed with bone cancer and diabetes, she stopped going to school and looked after her mother. When she was 14, she made a terrible mistake and had to run away from home. Her mother died and she was buried without Leila seeing her body. But her mother visited Leila in a dream and asked her to take care of her four brothers and not to get married until they were old enough to look after themselves. Little did she know, after completing the task her mother gave her, she would get married to someone from abroad and go to live in England. Leila's book will take you on a journey of her life and the many stormy seas she survived. Her book will open your eyes to events you may never have seen before in your life, which may have contributed to your sufferings. You will discover how crucial it is to balance important life values, which Leila calls the 5 Fs. These are: Faith; Family; Finance; Fitness; and Friends. Leila's book demonstrates that when you have too much of one value dominating your life and very little of the others, you will feel empty. You will only have balance in your life and feel at peace and in a place of love, when you live your true life purpose aligned with these five values.

When her mother was diagnosed with bone cancer and diabetes, she stopped going to school and looked after her mother. When she was 14, she made a terrible mistake and had to run away from home. Leila married Venroy Wilks and moved to England, which was a struggle as she did not speak good English. Together with her husband, she set up a business venture as well as managing day jobs. They did everything they could to provide for their son, Jacky Jean, JJ. They worked hard, trying their best as most parents do. Little did they know, however, that they were putting too much effort in one area of their lives and neglecting other areas, which are also important, and had battles and disasters to face coming around the corner, including a strong typhoon.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
