Overview

True Story Of Baroumbayes Journey From Africa To United States Noubaissem, in the Sara dialect in Chad, means ""God is with me."" Baroumbaye means ""to call me one day."" If the author's name has accomplished anything in his life, it is much more divine grace. Grace is from the Hebrew word chanan or the Greek word charis, meaning ""the state of kindness and favor toward someone, often with a focus on a benefit given to the object"" (Strong's Greek 5485). Grace is what God does because he is gracious. Every action of God toward us involves his grace. The author's essay in elementary and secondary would never have reflected the story of the man who has to be educated, get married, have five children, and come to live in the United States. But here he is at fifty-seven, writing a biography that mentions everything God has planned for him. That is not all because there are still a lot of hidden parts that will happen before the author meets him in heaven. Being ""Too American"" For Home And ""Too African"" For America This new book is not just another chapter; it is an entirely new volume exploring the human experience within the American context. It is a rich, often painful, but ultimately enlightening tapestry of **failure and success**. This is not a simple rags-to-riches story. It is about the success that feels like failure and the failure that becomes success. It is the heartbeat of the immigrant experience - a series of loops, falls, and unexpected leaps forward. I have written this for other immigrants and children of immigrants, as a validation of their unseen struggles. I have written it for all Americans, as a window into the often-invisible emotional labor of their neighbors. And I have written it for anyone who has ever failed as a testament to the fact that failure is not the opposite of success; it is its most important teacher.
