About this ebook
George K. Thompson II
I am someone who loves life and all it has to offer. As a child, I had the opportunity to live and grow in many different places, meeting wonderful people and learning along the way, pleased to connect with the beautiful differences of the world. As a child, I often thought about love and wondered if I would one day find it waiting for me, ready to embark on the journey of a lifetime that would take us from here to eternity as we never miss a beat. Now as an adult, I find myself looking for the God in everyone, because we are brothers and sisters in love, brothers and sisters in life, and brothers and sisters in Christ, amen.
