Overview

"This tale is about a boy who lost his father to an auto-train accident at age eight. The story traverses his climb from the lowest rung in life while shining shoes on the dusty streets. The tale leads through his many experiences in life. His determination and drive were fed by his refusal to accept his lowly position on the totem pole of fate. This drove him to vow that he would never accept that status. His faith, his belief that God would help him, came in the form of a gift from God, literally a message he took as a sign that God would always be there for him. The ""message"" was a candy bar he found in a sealed loaf of bread, literally an answer to an eight-year-old's prayers. He was almost washed overboard while on his Navy ship as angry waves tore his body from the guide wires on the bow of the ship. He knew clearly then that he had been in God's hands. This is a story of perseverance, of dogged determination, and a fixed mindset to never, never, never give up! It is a story about helping others, about values, and about respect for the good and the bad in our midst. It is a story of struggles, of major victories, and tragic losses. It is a story of a deep and abiding faith that powered his drive to recovery. It is a story about adventure, growth, intrigue, and incredible experiences-Shine Sir?"
