Synopsis

Meet Jennifer McMurtry. Come and witness a witness. When you first enter you find a woman who was overwhelmed with pain and loss. In the middle of the read, she begins to face her reality. Strong belief in God and a faith-driven approach, she realizes that her life "is what it is".Changing the past is not an option, but learning from the lesson is all more important. The present can birth forth a better tomorrow whilst listening to the all-knowing voice speaking to her heart. In her twenties she was blinded by false love, fake-friends and lots of parties. In her thirties she is sober and ready to deal with the world. The more she learns about people the more she learns about herself and shares with you. She wraps up her poetry on a more cheerful note. Words and thoughts are powerful and she knows to use them to inform. You will find no regrets and plenty of forgiveness. Using the spoken word as therapy with God as the therapist. Piecing together this work conveys honest and deep reflections. If you like to cry, laugh, and hear the truth, then this book is for you. God has truly wrapped his hand around these poems and clutched it tight and out pours the memories of pain and love. Watch the words as though you were watching a baptism and see the fire.
