Patricia Overson has spent years exploring the world, feeding
her passion to see and learn about new people, places, and cultures.
Whether she’s photographing a family of lions on a safari in
South Africa or pondering the majesty of the Grand Canyon,
Patricia has gleaned a wealth of knowledge and life experience.
Now she is taking that passion a step further and is sharing with
others some of the things she has learned along the way.
Patricia’s hope is that through the passages in this book, she will sow seeds of
encouragement in the lives of her readers. Such encouragement, she believes, can blossom into inspiration, hope, and the confidence to turn dreams into realities.
Patricia and her husband, John, enjoy traveling together. They have two grown children and are delighted to be grandparents. They live in a suburb of Minneapolis, Minnesota.
