      About the author

      CHAPTER ONE

      A person in the mirror

      A person in the mirror

      You have never cared,

      What others had to say,

      You always stood your ground,

      While others walked away

      You love a challenge,

      And you love life...

      I’ve never seen you,

      Back down from a fright

      When you see a problem,

      You find a way to fix it,

      You press forward

      (While others)

      Are quickly looking for an exit.

      I know
