During a tough breakup in early 2000, Marie-Christine Rogers wrote several poems of grief, anger, and healing. In the following years, she was diagnosed with a brain tumor and successfully treated. She exposed daily feelings of despair, rage, and renewal with powerful imagery. Writing poetry was therapeutic as it allowed her to acknowledge her anger and grief and start the healing process. While she touched the bottom of despair, she also discovered that all feelings and emotions are impermanent. Recovering physically from cancer and emotionally from her despair, she began a journey to actualization and self-knowledge while embracing Buddhism and mindfulness techniques. Marie-Christine Rogers is a Soto Zen Practitioner and neuroscientist who dedicated twenty-four years to secondary education.
