If you need hope, you need to read this book. You Are Me is a fascinating, heartening true story of one person’s journey from becoming crippled with amnesia by a car accident to recovering and becoming a parent to children who each needed a second chance at life. Our protagonist had the life he had always dreamed of—a great job, a partner, a nice home, and a great set of friends—a life many people dream of. At twenty-seven, a car accident left him severely handicapped and unable to remember his life before the car accident. The situation became worse when he was sent back to live with his parents in Alaska. Dealing with the unimaginable loss almost ended his life. Miracles happen when you least expect them. After seven years of trying, failing, giving up, and trying again, our protagonist eventually recovered much of what the car accident took away. He eventually got a job that he was able to keep, and with that came an amazing second chance at life. Because of this second chance, he was compelled to adopt children who also needed second chances. He adopted twins, then got married, and then together with husband, Joseph, adopted more children. These children came bearing the signs of unspeakable trauma. What had happened to them? No one knew. Four other families had taken them in and decided they couldn’t be parents to these children. Would these kids be able to recover from the damage that was done to their souls? Would these parents be able to love these children unconditionally? An event so implausible then threatens to tear apart the fragile family. Will the children ever have the family they so desperately need? Would there be a miracle for the children?

I know who I Am and why I Am here: to restore the Glory that through the mockery of sin disappeared. I Am the translation of the Word given by the Creator of Divine power, igniting the fire of truth, illumination, and demonstration in this hour. There is a new moon, the morning sunlight in shining honor yet naked and transparent, confounding and confusing the lier of lies, which fly freely to and fro, choking the life out of the truth being told. Yet now it is time to show. To demonstrate the life of Christ, which cuts like a two-edged sword sharper than a knife yet spiritually precise to slay the slayer so swiftly. He is unable to detect me because he does not understand who or whose I Am. Thereby causing himself to bow down before me because I Am his worst destructionthat is who I Am. See, because this is not about me or you, or skill or intellect, or what we do or do not do. This is about discovering the power of the Father of love, who causes those who appeared to be weak, broke, poor and low to the ground to stand. Because the ability to be promoted and exalted by Almighty God is manifested by a supernatural hand. See, this wisdom does not come from the philosophical, psychological, professional and intellectual concept of Doctor Who. This wisdom is the natural supernatural ability to know all things freely given by the Father of love, Almighty God, Creator of the sun and the moon that stand alone, on their own, with no strings attached. Our being of one mind through Christ is so sweet and so smooth and so precise. And again, this enabling grace does not come from the training of man. This is simply who I Am. I Am one word, one way one day, one creation, one vast multidimensional manifestation. All knowing and all having, while unseen praisers honor me with continual clapping. Worship being the ultimate, intimate, struggle-free, precious pressure of power ignited against all of My enemies. While in this place of intimacy, the supernatural key unlocks the combustible explosion of My Eternal Glory. The fullness of Me. All at one time, I shine on all. All at one time, I cause the devices of trickery to fall. All at one time, I set captives free. I Am your light in shining honor, and your greatest discovery is your comprehension and/or your understanding that I Am you and you are Me, God Almighty.

This is a poetry book I’ve written and it’s about my life. This is about the circumstances, situations and challenges that I went through and then I’ve overcome. It touches on mental health addiction issues and just life struggles in general. If I help one person with this literature I’ve written, then it will be all worth it.

An eye-opening exploration of race in America In this deeply inspiring book, Winona Guo and Priya Vulchi recount their experiences talking to people from all walks of life about race and identity on a cross-country tour of America. Spurred by the realization that they had nearly completed high school without hearing any substantive discussion about racism in school, the two young women deferred college admission for a year to collect first-person accounts of how racism plays out in this country every day--and often in unexpected ways. In Tell Me Who You Are, Guo and Vulchi reveal the lines that separate us based on race or other perceived differences and how telling our stories--and listening deeply to the stories of others--are the first and most crucial steps we can take towards negating racial inequity in our culture. Featuring interviews with over 150 Americans accompanied by their photographs, this intimate toolkit also offers a deep examination of the seeds of racism and strategies for effecting change. This groundbreaking book will inspire readers to join Guo and Vulchi in imagining an America in which we can fully understand and appreciate who we are.
