Coming Up From the Downside: Finding Joy in Our Song EBOOK

Liquid Cat Books proudly presents “Coming Up From the Downside: Finding Joy in Our Song,” by Buddah Desmond. This soul-stirring collection of poetry is about adversity, healing, and resilience. As the saying goes, “Life be lifing.” At different points, we encounter challenges, trials, and tribulations. Expected and unexpected. Some we may be equipped to face. Others we have to figure out as we go along. It’s not easy, but we find a way to pull through. 
 
Be it pain, grief, depression, health, heartbreak, or other issues, we overcome. Thanks in large part to faith, real love, and the joy that sustains us through it all. Cause being down is a temporary state. We’re not letting the downside claim us. We’re getting up. Coming up from the downside.
