Most people have a misconception about cheating – the onus largely falls on men being the ones responsible for it. As a result, they’re often treated with much more leniency than women who cheat. They tend to face far more dire consequences than their masculine counterparts. However, Sue Jo Horton, also known as, Sujo, is here to show that cheating is wrong, regardless of one’s gender. Cheating is Disgusting is an autobiographical account of her life. A retired hairdresser, Sue spent most of her formative years seeing her father treat her mother poorly and vowed never to become like her or let men treat her like that. However, while growing up with a cheating father, Sue didn’t realize how his habits, unintentionally, translated into her own and affected her relationships later in life. Cheating is Disgusting is her story. It gives one a raw look into Sue’s life as she bares it all in this daring account in the hopes that readers can learn from her mistakes and avoid them in their own lives.

Its my hope that youve enjoyed Stepping from the Shadows and that in these pages you have found the inspiration you were looking for. It occurs to me that with each poem I write, I am giving you a very real part of myselfeven as you have already given to me in the inspiration of the poem. And so it goes a constant cycle of you and me giving and receiving inspiration one from another. It is my prayer that you may be drawn back to this collection of poetry many times, as we all at times once again feel the need to step from the shadows of our life.

The Silent Hurt portrays a young poor country girl with a disability who was labeled harshly by society. Even so, through strong determination and a powerful inner spirit, she refused to accept those labels. Jo Ann Coleman was born in the forties and lived in a very small town in Louisiana. At age five, she started school and soon realized that she was not like the other boys and girls in her class. Struggling first in elementary school, where she was immediately labeled as retarded, she eventually lost sight in her right eye. She grew up among cousins, without her parents, and constantly felt depressed and alone, facing name-calling from her peers. She graduated from high school and received a scholarship to attend nursing school--only to lose the scholarship due to missing an important letter. Because of her silent depression as a child, she eventually attempted suicide. Her disability and low self-esteem made her feel that no one cared. When she finally let Jesus Christ direct her life, however, everything turned around. She turned adversity into triumph and now seeks to inspire those afflicted by physical, emotional, and mental handicaps and low self-esteem. Although she made many mistakes and had her flaws, those flaws would eventually become her joy, peace, and contentment. with the true peace that comes from knowing Jesus Christ, she discovered the life she had been dreaming of since childhood.
