I look into the glass, thinking about my past. Finally realizing how fast time has moved. Yesterday, today, and I'm still losing. Shame with no gain, and I'm still living in yesterday's window frame, and still feeling the aches and pain. Hmm, fallen from a place of grace. Disappearing without a trace. Now my life is an illusion, with so much confusion. I'm in dire need of a spiritual transfusion. I look into the glass, and what do I see, a very sad man staring back at me. So many brothers and sisters are lost in the struggle. Placed in the line of sight of the devil's muzzle. Confused by the enemy's jigsaw puzzle. The enemy tricks the mind with worldly gifts, as he traverses around for those that he missed. The man in the mirror stares at me, wondering how I've allowed misery to creep back up on me. When I look into his eyes, I see a once saved man that's full of lies. If he's not careful he will surely die.

A former Domincan nun's story of dedication to her vocation and escape. ‘You have made the most important decision of your life and the greatest sacrifice a human being can make. Well done Judith.’ In 1955, at seventeen years of age, Judith Graham entered the Dominican Order and began her life as Sister Stephen. In this compassionate yet frank account she recalls her years as a Dominican nun during the repressive pre-Vatican II era. The vows of a nun – those of poverty, chastity and obedience – encapsulated in the commitment of ‘death to self’ proved too much for Sister Stephen. Her battle for acceptance and spiritual fulfilment was stifled by the rules and regulations of the Church. Yet leaving the Order was even more difficult. After a twelve-year struggle she escaped from the convent ‘feeling like a battered wife’. Breaking the Habit, first published in 1992, is a warm, personal story of increasing doubt and subsequent growth, and of freedom of spirit – ‘a freedom I will never take for granted.’ It also captures a way of life that no longer exists, and one woman’s struggle to regain her sense of self. ‘The story is riveting. But it is the writing that delivers the story, after all.’ Jane Tolerton, The Waikato Times
