Don’t Forget to Be Light

by Amelia Homewood

Amelia Homewood grew up in a household surrounded by addiction, trauma, and abuse. In Don’t Forget to Be Light, she tells her story. It’s not meant to highlight the negative aspects of her life as she perceives them, but rather to show how she overcame numerous inevitable life-altering circumstances for the better and made the conscious effort to break multiple generational curses.



This memoir narrates Homewood’s harrowing testimony about life’s inevitable hardships and how she met the obstacles head on with an optimistic view of the world and a passion for healing. She tells about untimely deaths, substance abuse, teenage pregnancy, and surviving the struggle by giving it to God.



A powerful testimony of breaking generational trauma, Don’t Forget to Be Light shares an inspiring tale of overcoming obstacles by challenging your mindset, expanding your capacity for forgiveness, and trusting God. Homewood encourages you to find the love and bravery inside you, start over, and allow yourself to be the light of your life again.

This is a testimonial that will have you on the edge of your seat, laughing (or maybe, chuckling through tears,) crying and feeling everything so deeply. Amelia really hits home when she discusses her childhood and her upbringing. Many of us can relate to the generational trauma she speaks of and many of us will sympathize with her throughout reading this book. The pain feels very real and cuts deep. At the end, however, you feel as though you are lifted up and rising from the ashes like a Phoenix, (the title of the last chapter of the book) just as she describes she was and you can’t help but finish the book with a smile. 🖤 ps. Can we get a sequel?
