Description
by Sally And Jonah Ismael (Author)
Authors, competitive Taekwondo athletes, and teenage twins Sally and Jonah Ismael endured severe childhood psychological, emotional, and mental distress as they confronted their fears, doubts, pain, and chronic PTSD during the traumatic experience of abuse, bullying, and rejection they have encountered. The journey they have taken to unveil their identity and the true face behind many people's masks enveloped them through stereotypes, labels, and stigmas that others want them to carry. On their long journey, they encountered many painful mental battles regarding their identity; and also unlocked strategies to heal their wounds. The Night Blooming is a reflection on the journals they wrote in the seven years they were imprisoned training in their garage. They practiced alone; were rejected and abused by many. At first, the twins wallowed in their pain, as they watched their childhood slowly being obliterated. However, on their quest, they discovered a world of forces within themselves that led them down a different path and revealed their purpose in life. The Night Blooming is a journey of healing for teenage twins who dared to say no to their abuser.
