I Say Yes: Reclaiming Respect and Love for Life

By Cathy Courtney

Adversity is an indisputable fact of life that we all will face at one time or another. Through one of the most monumental emotional challenges of her own life, Cathy Courtney chose to not only gain wisdom, but also to inspire, enlighten, and enrich others with her insights.

In a heartfelt collection of poems, Courtney shares a glimpse into her personal journey at the end of her decades-long marriage as she pulled herself up from rock bottom and transformed into an empowered, courageous survivor. Drawing on her spiritual convictions and practical experience, Courtneys inspiring and sometimes raw poems bare her journey that resulted in first rebuilding then reclaiming her strength, dignity, and inner-happiness. By sharing her darkness and ultimate recovery, she provides a roadmap for others to do the same.

I Say Yes shares poetry that illustrates how a deep crisis can hold gifts of new levels of purpose, enthusiasm, and a love of life.
