I’ll Trade my Sorrow

Some in our society grow up with abusive and/or alcoholic parents. For those who had to live through a painful childhood, becoming well functioning adults with the ability to love and care for those around them, while also learning to love themselves, is a daunting task.

I’ll Trade My Sorrowby Cynthia Primm has been re-released in an updated version chronicles one woman’s triumph over dysfunction, pain and low self-esteem, having grown up with an alcoholic mother and an abusive father.  Her insight provides hope that any path through life can be successful, even through the very common pains and obstacles that many may share.  Stressing that the sorrow of our past can be traded for the joy of tomorrow, she invites readers to travel along on her journey of discovery.

Primm’s writing offers a positive approach on learning how to love, especially, yourself.  Taking a closer look at how the environment can dictate one’s self-worth, each section shows how a renewed sense of self is attainable, despite adverse conditions.

I’ll Trade My Sorrow will encourage readers to find their own road to self-discovery and healing. For any of those who are still weighed down with various obstacles, this work can give them the impetus they need to move on with their lives.

A testament to Primm’s courage and perseverance, this book which is dedicated to her mother, who died of cancer, and her sister who she lost to alcoholism at age 30, will appeal to anyone who has felt alone, been in difficult circumstances, and wants to hold on to hope for a better life.
