Adversity is defined as difficulties, misfortune, trouble, hardship, distress, disaster, suffering, affliction, sorrow, misery, tribulation, woe, pain, trauma, mishap, accident, upset, setback, crisis, catastrophe, tragedy, or burden. Adversity does not discriminate. It does not care where you come from, how much money you have, your age, or your religious belief. You will face adversity at some point in your life. We do not grow or become strong during life's good times; we grow when we press through difficulties without giving up. This book is not about surviving adversity. It's about thriving beyond adversity. The author shares his personal life's struggles allowing the reader to see thru his eyes in an honest view. In this one book, we see how he is able to deal with challenges in his life and even the loss of a child and not give up on living and discovering what his purpose is.
