Publisher's Synopsis
It is so often said that the worse experience a parent can suffer is the loss of a child. Woven in this portrait of strength you will find inspiration and hope from a woman's journey as she struggled to remain alive after the murder of two sons; her courage to withstand the horrors of social injustice; her will to escape the clutches of domestic violence; and her battle to triumph over breast cancer. Reflections of the past convey her deep concern and desire to help those who grapple with grief, mental and physical abuse, and life threatening disease.
It's a soul-stirring cry from within;
A message to the minds
Open to finding answers, knowin' and seekin' truth,
Then speakin' on it; enlightened by this holy space,
Feelin' justified testifyin' on it without disgrace
As the simple truth constantly stares me back in the face.
This book captures the essence of why and how it was
Because now comes all too soon in this place.
'Tis why precious memories unfold on this page.
'Tis the ultimate script waitin' to be staged.
So please allow me the opportunity to school ya
So nobody else will be able to fool ya.
Just wanna erase scars from the past,
The present, and from any other source.
And, of course, I really do wanna try to free ya.
'Cause in 2020 or twenty-whatever, without this lesson,
I sure in hell wouldn't wanna be ya.
