I’m excited to share my book, Hindsight, with you. I wrote this book throughout December 2019 and finished it a few months later. It wasn’t a difficult book to write. The moments that it became difficult is because I wasn’t writing honestly. And there were parts I felt were too honest, but I reminded myself that it’s in the truth that everything will make sense.
What inspired you to write the book?
I was driving to church one evening, reflecting on how 2019 was exceptionally disappointing, bitter, and unsatisfying. I recall thinking that I should write about how I felt about it, but then I began to hesitate. Suddenly the title came to me, and as I drove I quickly picked up my phone, and in the voice memo app, I recorded the title, and a brief summary of what the book was going to be about.
Why did you title it Hindsight?
I think the title was meant to give me a different perspective of those challenging moments. The disappoint, the bitter feelings: they made me feel despondent about life. I wanted to highlight how bitter everything was; but I believe this book was a way for me to look at those hard times reflectively, and with more hope. I needed a different perspective on what I was experiencing. It certainly reflects in the way the book is written.
Why should anyone read the book?
It’s challenging to consider a positive perspective when you are going through hard time. Most advice wants you to change your environment, gain a new skill, take some sort of action to pass through that season faster; but it’s not always about getting through it quickly, but persevering through it. You must persevere through the discomfort; but maintain faith and hope for better days to come. This belief is echoed throughout the book.
