The Walk: The Journey

By Brohdny Ricketts

The second edition of the walk is sharing applicable real-life examples that we can all learn from. The seven words are now paired with other helpful ways to live a better lifestyle. The cover of the book illustrates how one has many different roads to get to the same destination. Our goals in life are very similar to one another, but we do not all walk the same path. This book demonstrates how we all can take different roads to get to the same point. The seven words implemented into ones life will improve oneself, spiritual believer or nonbeliever.
