A Pebble That Floats by Imelda Lahoz Argel, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

A memoir to inspire womenIn a culture where men were excused for simply being a man and all their follies accepted without a whimper; where secrets were kept behind closed doors; where women were taught to speak in whispers – one woman fought to defy the norms dictated by a society that refused to understand. This is the autobiography of author, Imelda Lahoz Argel. In her memoir, she tells of her rich ancestral heritage that did not shield her from heartache and pain. She tells of her heartaches and her struggles as she inches her way from the depths of despair back to the top. Like most women, she threw herself to love with the hope of living a life happily ever after. But such a dream was not meant to be. Instead she found herself abused and abandoned; alone and forlorn. This is her story, a tale of anguish – her struggle for her own redemption –and her ultimate escape from the man who promised to love and protect her. Despite the broken vows from a man who made her matter not, she vowed to reclaim her life for herself and her son in a new country. Through her life’s trials and tribulations, she summoned all her strength and courage to get out of the abyss of dejection. Unrelenting and determined, she takes aim at life as best she could. And from the emotional depths, she floats right back to the top. By Benjie de Ubago, publisher, FilipinoOz | A Pebble That Floats by Imelda Lahoz Argel, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
