This raw and heart-wrenching book gives a glimpse at how hope has the ability to thrust even the most debilitated soul towards life. It will inspire, challenge, and bring hope to anyone who has ever needed to overcome adversity. Whether the reader is from the deep recesses of the “ghetto” or the most extravagant suburban neighborhood, triumph, and the inspiration it births, is universally.
