Call Me Adam

Me, I'm from a family of 19 kids, the middle one. I have grade 2 education therefore i don't read and write so good. We grew up poor and I was always hungry. I was told that I was ugly and stupid. Papa kicked me out of my home at the age of 15 and I had to fend for myself. Because of what I went through, it made me the man I am today. This is a true story of how you can rise above your upbringing, not use it as an excuse for your situation but OVERCOME your past, not letting it dictate to your future. You drive your own ship... the choice you make today will affect your future.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
