When life gives you sour grapes, make grape juice. Not everyone is born with a silver spoon in their mouth where everything is easy and handed to them on a silver platter. Even those in wealthy families have a hard time fitting in with a crowd unless they are around other wealthy individuals. Still, that crowd might not be as accepting as others. The author has a wonderful family and a mother who spoiled her but still taught her the value of a dollar. This book will allow the reader to walk the path of the author born with Cerebral Palsy. A disability that causes brain damage at birth. Life can be difficult growing up, but it can also be even harder having a disability.
In this book, I will show you how to overcome the obstacles of family life, school life, relationships outside of family and the end result of making dreams come true. Everybody has a different story to tell. You may have lived through something you can't get over. I'm here to tell you that there is hope for your future and a light at the end of the tunnel. I lived it and survived because of a higher power that I believe in.
There is always an upside to every situation you face. People will come in and go out of your life to teach lessons. It's up to you and only you to decide whether you will continue to remain destructive or let go and find the peace and happiness you deserve. If greater things happen to me, they can happen for you too.
This may be a chance of a lifetime to finally get rid of all the poison in your system. Get your tissues ready. Cry if you have to.
