About this ebook
Our lives are filled with opportunities and challenges. Sometimes we feel sad, angry, and misunderstood because we lack the clarity needed to understand our own lives in a way that makes sense. With the loss of her son while living abroad, Harvey battled depression, confusion, and isolation. However, her understanding of life and the way in which she experiences people, circumstances and events was powerfully transformed as she developed a profound understanding through Divine connection within. Her explanation is clear and simple, presented in a friendly, approachable manner. Unlike other authoritative, moralizing approaches, Michele Harvey, an average woman with an everyday life, has found a reproducible path out of suffering and dilemma by tapping the personal Divine connection within. Avenues to healing are always present within you as well; you simply need to know how to access them and be open to receiving. You will better understand your life's purpose in the world. The poetic style of From Confusion to Clarity encourages introspection and the personal search for happiness and understanding. Harvey's straightforward text has a refreshing approach to the teachings of modern day spirituality, guiding readers to free themselves from confusion and to emerge with a vision for life that is far greater than ever seemed possible. The book's introduction is written by Conversations With God author, Neale Donald Walsch.

Introduction - From Confusion to Clarity
(Vital Personal Growth in 30 Days or Less)
Everyone has gone through a period of time in their life when nothing is going right, when, indeed, everything is falling apart, when there seem to be no answers, and when sadness, anger, and powerlessness reigns. Some of us have gone through such periods more than once. And some are going through such a period right now.
If you are moving through this kind of time in your life—or if you know and love someone who is—you will be grateful forever that you found this book. Because in finding this book you just may find your way out of the deep confusion that assails every mind when confronted with situations, events and problems for which there seem to be no explanations or solutions.
Most people, when confronted by such extraordinary circumstances, understandably just want out.
Ironically, what would most benefit them would be not to get out, but to get in. That is, to go within—where the Source of all wisdom and clarity, healing and peace resides.
It has been my observation that people intuitively know this. That is why most of us become very quiet when things are not going well—to say nothing of when disaster strikes. That is, in fact, what we often do. We often say nothing when disaster strikes.
What is there to say? And to whom would we say it? Those closest to us can frequently be tired of hearing about it or can feel awkward, in that they have no answers for us and just don't know what to do or to tell us. Total strangers, on the other hand, (priests, ministers, rabbis, counselors, therapists, doctors, etc., who would be happy to listen), are not always an option, because then it is we who may often feel awkward. It is not easy to tell someone you don't know that you are falling apart.
Yet here is a great truth: often when you feel you are falling apart, what is actually happening outside of you is that things are finally falling together—sometimes for the first time. This can be very difficult to believe when the exterior events of your life are, in fact, real life changing tragedies—such as the untimely death of a loved one, the sudden ending of an important relationship, the unexpected loss of employment and income, etc. Yet it can be true nonetheless.
Still, how anything bad can be good for you is one of those things that creates the most confusion in times such as these. We want to believe that life only wants the best for us. We want to believe that God is on our side,
is always with us, and that there is a Larger Purpose in everything—a purpose that serves the souls of all involved at some level. But how can we believe this when everything that is happening seems to not serve us, or anyone at all?
That is life's perennial question—and that is where Michele Harvey comes in.
Here, in this remarkable and easy-to-read book, this regular person
living a regular life
just like you (she is not a psychiatrist or a minister or a doctor or a well known and globally published author), places her own life experience in full view in such a helping and healing revelation that the way in becomes the way out of confusion and dilemma.
Michele knows about life-changing tragedy. She lost a son. And it is said that there is no greater pain than that of a parent who loses a child. She's faced other negative circumstances as well, including the end of a marriage. Yet she's found her way back to peace and happiness, joy and love. She has done it with a remarkable formula: the application of one spiritual principle after another, one day after another.
And now she's done something else just as remarkable. She's put down her formula in writing—but not in a preachy-teachy
way that is found in so many self-help books. Rather, in an informal, almost off-handed and breezy way, very much like the writing you might find in someone's personal diary: rich with experience, but absolutely devoid of know-it-all, voice-from-the-top narratives; like a good friend talking to you about what they learned and how they learned it—but in a way that doesn't leave you feeling spoken down to, but joined with, during the moment of your own life challenge.
And then, the greatest gift of all: a program of simple-to-do (but profoundly impactful) activities that can move you from confusion to clarity in 30 days.
Yes...if you or people you love are moving through a difficult moment right now, you will bless the day you found this book. And you will see that healing spiritual principles are already at work in your life...
Do you think you found this book by accident?
Love to you at this challenging time
Neale Donald Walsch
One
Have you ever wondered why we are born with eyes that face outward, eyes that enable us to look at the world around us, see our face in the mirror, but not to look within, to see our own mind, or to glimpse our own soul? Do you ever feel like your whole world is upside down, and that you need to stand on your head just to make life work?
In 2009, I attended a workshop given by Neale Donald Walsch, author of Conversations with God. During that experience, with a room full of people, I was given the opportunity to relax my body, still my mind, and ask God a question that had tortured me for over 20 years. Why was my son born with a genetic disease, a life-sentence, which would claim his life, only two years later, before his 25th birthday?
I received an answer that came through in the voice I recognized as my own, yet I knew from the deeper place, we all innately possess, this wasn't my mind playing tricks on me. I was not intoxicated on anything more than a burning choice to understand. With reference to my son, God replied to me in these six words, In his wholeness, he is here.
The six words that changed my whole understanding, and enabled me to clearly know that my son's passing was not a tragedy, but rather a continuation of his soul's purpose, as well as mine, and
