Book excerpt: The newborn baby cry announced that he was alive, heaven applauded, but the world slapped a label on his forehead. There began Ron's life story of jeers, rejection, ridicule, unwelcome comments, strange looks, laughter and abandonment. How can one tame emotions not to run away with every experience of life's troubles? This is a book that reveals the resilience of a human spirit in the face of life's troubles. In reading this book, you will be challenged, encouraged, motivated, and hopefully will lead you to search your own heart and find your purpose in life. For this reason I was born, to be a conduit of God's love. —Ron Willson
