    Each page, or few pages, is different. The book is not about one subject, but a series of events in my life. lt is funny, poignant, sad, hopeful, angry, joyful. I am a Christian, therefore there is more religion in the book than I expected. Some page titles are: Tattoos, My Daddy was a Welder, Life After Covid, Wedding, Good People Have to Suffer, My Brain, Silly God, What am I Doing Here? Summer, Edgar Reed. lf I wasn't there when it happened, someone in the family was. We can't call it fiction although some of it sounds like it is. lt's a fun little book that will occupy your free time and hopefully exercise your mind a bit.

    When he was there for the first time, he learnt that he had to turn his trousers over so as to prevent it from getting dirty and learnt that each time he killed a bed bug, he had to put the stained fingers to his nose smelling them and then wipe the blood of the insect on the wall on which he had scratched his name and date of admittance...The strong force of Christendom with many wearing and bearing crosses did their very best in the wicked art of blood spilling with the conviction that they were inspired by the Almighty...Getting to Oshodi for the first time caught Aristide's admiration so he wasted time in looking at the population and traffic...On the faces of the population, he saw seriousness, conviction, and endless aspiration. On those of the drivers, he saw stress, anger and desperation...The idle people in Lagos are busy. The lazy are handy. ARISTIDE - A decisive story of a bildungsroman

    I was inspired to write this book because I believe that reading books to children connects the parents or teachers to the child. They can also be educational. I love children and do what I can to help them learn. Children books are perfect for elementary schools, nurseries, day care centers or at home with your child. They can read and sang a little tune while on vacation or just for fun.

He must chew his way out of the grass and find a jumping off place in a renewed search for his home.

    "e;My Journey,"e; was a revelation I received during my illness. I was compelled to share the numerous encounters I had with God and how throughout my walk with Him, I received healing and deliverance. I recounted the many times God used me to touch the lives of individuals who came upon roadblocks and through prayer received liberation. I choose to share my testimonies of the power of evangelism and the joy of simply reaching out to individuals who need help. This brief outline has allowed me to reminisce on my journey and life in general. It is through recording these experiences that I have learnt appreciation and gratitude for the many mountains I climbed and the many victories I have received over the years.

    ABOUT THE BOOK: Our nation has taken great pains to cover up the history of the Black man, Africans, and the significance of Melanin in humans. Even our White forefathers politically ran this country from before the Declaration of Independence to this very day - the twenty-first century. When Thomas Jefferson constructed the Declaration of Independence, other persons such as John Adams and Benjamin Franklin made several changes. Ben Franklin even denoted in his writings "e;the no more Africans should be brought from Africa because Whites were already out numbered in this country. "e;All men created equal"e; included only White people, since African slaves were brought to this country - America - only for the labor the slaves could produce as well as their knowledge, talents and expertise in building this nation. All people are given air to breathe as a gift from God and must value themselves and all others. It appears that we will struggle for justice and equality for a lifetime and let a moral voice be heard for generations to come. "e;Black Lives Matter"e; and "e;All Lives Matter"e; are a starting point. There are many changes coming, no situation is perfect, but with our faith and willingness to accept each other's talents as gifts from our Creator, we will prevail as a "e;whole nation"e;. God has his finger print on us, He's not pleased with us, but He has the power and love to rebrand us in His own image.

    Why this appraisalIn the framework of an autobiography? I am a naturalized American citizen. I am what I am, and I becamewhat I became because of you, you the wonderful American people. Youdear Americans, who have created this wonderful and benevolent countrythrough your hard work. No other nation, to date, can claim that they have donemore or better than you have in such a short time. I am giving you my thanks, my appreciations, my respects, my love and devotion to you and your work, aspirations, and ideals. I am doing this in a try to nullify the vicious attempts of modern-day Trotsky(s) and their clones, who are trying to tear down what you have built, because they cannot match you or your work, or outdo you. In my Addendums, I have selectively expressed my heartfelt gratitude tothose who had the most effect on my life, but the list of those who, in one wayor another, affected my life will probably make a book as thick as this one. The majority of them are Americans. My dear and benevolent people who have helped me, and others like me,millions of us, be proud of who you are and what you have done. You have always torn down what was useless, and have replaced it with something more useful. For the sake of the future of this nation, and the salvation of mankind, don't give anything free to anyone. Don't give anyone free fish to feed on, teach them how to fish to live on. May the intelligent energy be with you.
