Hating Self

Rate this book
Hating Self by Boo Black invites the reader to join the author on her journey of self-discovery, self-acceptance, and self-love. After struggling as a child to be accepted and loved by others, the author shares her life story of growing up in a predominantly white town in Tennessee. The book gives lessons on how to survive bullying, how to embrace your authentic self, and how to discover your true purpose. The author's Christian beliefs guided her in becoming the amazing adult that she is today, and she invites us to find strength within ourselves to be who God wants us to be.

Believing that what we're going through in the present time is what our future will be, many children and adults choose to end their journeys before they can even begin. Through her painful experiences, the author seeks to find and connect with others who have had similar situations of self-doubt and self-hatred and bring them to the light. What we endure now is not the final chapter of our lives.

Be who you were meant to be, and embrace your authentic selves by choosing to love yourselves. You have a purpose, and we need you here today, tomorrow, and always. God bless you all, and keep you safe from harm.

Rebecca Wells Phillips uses Boo Black as her pen name because she hated being black. She is now embracing who she is and wants to guide others to do the same. Loving Self by Boo Black and Butterfly Blossoms by Rachel Bleu are available on Amazon.com. Her short stories, Homeless Again and It's Only a Dream, can be found on Reedsy.com. Current projects include Hurricane Helene Resiliency After the Storm Part One and Dragonfly Passion by Rachel Bleu. Read more about the author on her official website, www.rebeccawellsphillips.com.
