MELBOURNE, Australia, Nov. 28, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — A painful past made Malamateniah Koutsada<\/a> be determined to reach her dreams. \u201c. . . But I Promised God\u201d (published by Xlibris AU<\/a> in January 2019), which receives a new marketing campaign tells others to follow their dreams.

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Some of us use those obstacles as stepping stones to get across to the other side to do bigger and better things. Others use them as obstacles to stay back, do nothing other than blame others, and talk about their bad luck. I don\u2019t want to be one of them. I want to see myself as a victor over life\u2019s battles, not as a victim.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Koutsada shares her experience during the Greek civil war, by the time she migrated to Australia and her failed marriage. Through this book, she wants her family to learn from her and understand the actions she was taking.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI want my children and grandchildren to know who I am and why I behaved the way I did, so that they can understand me and forgive my mistakes. I want to help other parents avoid the mistakes I have made bringing up my children,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201c. . . But I Promised God\u201d is a story of triumph over adversity. She wants her readers to learn that one can forgive without bitterness.
