This is a compelling and deeply personal story. It captures the struggles, resilience, adversity, and determination Leon overcame to survive. It captures his quest to provide for his family while facing the burden of pride and regret in his decisions. Leon's book is powerful, personal, and inspiring while ensuring it leaves a lasting impact on the reader. Living a life where Leon couldn't read or write, he faced rejection, loneliness, and heartbreak. Leon lost people he loved and had people turn their backs on him. But through it all, he never lost his faith. Leon never lost his will to survive. And most importantly, he never lost his love for people. Leon hopes you walk away with a new belief that you can rise above it no matter what you've been through, no matter what odds are stacked against you. To anyone struggling with shame, feeling like they aren't enough, or believing they can't make it--I'm here to tell you that you can. And with God on your side, you will. Leon's greatest hope is that you (especially his grandchildren) take the lessons in these pages and apply them to your own lives. Know that you don't need wealth, education, or status to be great. You only need faith, determination, and a heart that seeks to do right.
