Writing has always been my way of relaxing and dealing with stress. Raised by Myrtle Brown, my grandmother in Perrine, Florida, my brother and I learned survival on a whole new scale. We had no other family in Florida, so my Jamaican grandmother worked hard as a housekeeper to give us a good life.While she was out working, my brother and I were home alone. It was not just a struggle to survive, but to gain an education in a place that had no love for outsiders. We pushed to overcome every obstacle to earn the success we have today.Even though my grandmother has been gone for many years now, I can only pray that she would be proud of all I have accomplished. I graduated from Miami Palmetto Senior High School and went on to fight for my country aboard the USS Enterprise during the war on terrorism when America was attacked.I have always seen life as a challenge to be answered. Even though there are things I would do differently, I am thankful that I now stand complete as a man. This book is just one of many accomplishments I look forward to happening. I am also looking to God to bring me into the state of life that He wants me reach.Ernie A. Forbes of Winter Garden, Florida, has written poetry all his life, but this is his first published book. "Now I stand at the door of becoming a spiritual writer for God. With a daughter under my wing, I pray to share my passion for writing with her as well as introduce her to the teachings of my grandmother, which have helped me to overcome all."Publisher's website: http://sbprabooks.com/ErnieAForbes
