Hi, I'm Kevin, the author of this book, as you probably already guessed. Let me tell you why you should read this book and what I learned from writing it. I can't get out of bed on my own, but I promoted policies that change the lives of others. I made it to Washington DC, but I never finished college. I have a career, but never had a job. I've been the best man at a wedding, but I can't get a date myself. We get used to seeing the world in a certain way and after a while all we see is bad, but one person's bad is another one's good. The circumstances of my life have forced me to have a certain perspective that I wish to share with as many people as possible. I'm a lifelong disability advocate with a tiny blog, with a loyal following. I'm not looking to become famous or be an inspiration. In fact, it's quite the opposite. I am very reserved with certain parts of my life. I always cringe a bit when I hear someone call me inspirational. I am not a martyr don't worship me or pity me. Just see me as you would see anyone else. I want the same things everyone else does. The problem is society has decided I can't have them. I sat down to write something on breaking down barriers and misconceptions before I knew it became something much more. Everything happens for a reason, I truly believe writing these words was one of the primary purposes of my life. Father God gave me this disability. I'm just trying to make the most out of it. This is not your typical autobiography or memoir. I'm sharing my life experiences as more of a commentary on humanity as a whole. I do my best to sprinkle bits of comedy throughout the composition so it feels more like a conversation between friends instead of me just talking at you. You will find open-ended questions throughout the entire book to try to make it an interactive experience. This should be easy to read and share with friends. That doesn't mean you won't be left with a lot to think about. Ultimately the conclusions you draw after reading will probably vary from person-to-person. Some will think I am an idiot, others will say I am a lovesick puppy. All that is fine with me, what you think about me doesn't matter. It's about how you interact with the rest of the world after I share my thoughts. If I've done my job correctly you will laugh, be angry, be sad, and feel love in just over 100 pages. Our day to day life is hard enough as it is. Maybe this book will make one of those days a little better, and then you can go out and make someone's day better. Thank you for reading this description regardless of whether or not you choose to click purchase. I'm sending you all my love and wishing that you have a very nice day.
