This book is my attempt to offer you the lessons, stories, concepts, and wisdom assembled through my lifelong process of self-discovery. What I am about to share with you are some of my most profound and personal experiences, and I am honored to share them with you.
There are many who have inspired me, past and present, during the writing of this book and with wonderful, enlightening self-discovery experience—so many that it would be difficult to list them all. However, I would like to especially thank those that are close to me (you know who you are) who have supported my Desire and living out my Righteous Cause. I love you all!
Thanks to everyone who has passed through my life. I do appreciate each and every one of you and those experiences and relationships we have shared!
I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge. That myth is more potent than history. That dreams are more powerful than facts. That hope always triumphs over experience. That laughter is the only cure for grief. And I believe that love is stronger than death.
