This book is a part of a series about street life and incarceration among our teens and adults that are dealing with adversity. Most of the books consist of poetry and short stories that encourage those individuals to be encourage no matter what your situation entails. Some people lose hope when they become adjudicated. As a Community leader that has dealt with numerous problems this has given me insight on health and wellness/ cry of our young people. We are losing our youth to drugs, guns and violence at an early age. Suicide is becoming a daily conversation in our Schools, Centers, Jails, Communities. My goal and mission is to reach out to those in need by storytelling. I understand the struggle and know what it means to strive for excellence. I hope my readers will be inspired and I hope they will take these words of wisdom to the heart. May you find peace in every line, as you search for answers. Take one day at a time continue to expand in the good things in life.
