This work is an emotionally evocative testament to the power of perseverance in moments of adversity, tribulation and uncertainty. It depicts a challenge of faith and the wonderful impact of surrendering to a higher power. With a lyrical passage in repetition like a chant or prayer, mYsteriouswaYs depicts pathways to healing, stimulated by one’s personal faith and will for survival.
