It took me 75 years to learn that doubt didn’t destroy my faith — it led me to real belief.

"I grew up in a world where Sunday morning was a sacred law and every question had a pre-written answer. But life has a way of shattering your certainty. At 75, I’ve realized that I spent decades defending a fortress, only to find that the light I was looking for was always outside the walls. This is the truth about what it really means to believe, discovered through seventy-five years of doubt, loss, and unexpected grace." In this moving and deeply personal letter, Teresa, a 75-year-old woman from the historic streets of Montreal, breaks her silence on the struggle between organized religion and the true search for meaning. From her childhood as a deacon's daughter to the devastating loss of her best friend at age twenty-three, Teresa takes us on a journey through the "shadows of the parish" and into the light of genuine human connection. For years, Teresa followed the rules, memorized the scriptures, and ignored the whispers of her own heart.
