"Dear Mom, I’ve Always Wanted You
to Know is a steady guide that can support you through the complex
and often scary terrain of making peace with your mother. The
process of baring your soul, unraveling your suppressed emotions,
and speaking from your heart will liberate you and bring light

To celebrate the complicated mother-daughter relationship,
Lisa Delman started the Letters from the Heart Project(tm). An
invitation for women to open their hearts by writing a letter
to their mothers, the project received nearly a thousand letters
from around the world. Here, for the first time, is a collection
of the most powerful and inspiring messages. In their own words,
daughters share the stories and feelings they have kept inside
for so long--as they recognize their mothers' sacrifices, forgive
past hurts, overcome grief, and above all, honor the most important
relationship of their lives.
