"Sand rasped incidents in my life, causing an abrasive outcome. Down came the rain, smothering me with mud and splattering me with my tears, creating a pool of sorrow that I swam in. An intervening energy took over me. I felt weightless as it pushed me through murky incidents. As sand and rain danced as one, it tormented me, leaving smearing mud on my days. Devastation overcame me with a magnitude that quivered my being. As I soaked in this salt water, my life remained damp for some time." Muddy Minutes accentuates a phase in the life of actress Turquoise Colmenares that depended on one decision that would change her present and maybe her future, considering that it is impossible to satisfy everyone. Brave acts and scenes of perseverance gained her incessant admiration and unveiled a subject that many actors dreaded. She walked through her blown-away dreams and tossed hopes with grace. She dared to live through all the muddled moments. Rima Jbara's message in this novel is to help you experience the joy of being alive and the completeness that gratitude can bring with fortitude, conviction, and integrity
