The whirlpool of struggles, genetics, and trials mentioned within this book have aligned me to where and who I am today. My name is Lisa Jackson. I was born and raised in Miami, Florida. I am currently a second time author, a mother, a faith warrior, and a divine African American woman. Sometimes we get comfortable allowing people and events to deprive our lives of euphoria, mislead us and eventually abuse us over time.I have made decisions that have caused me pain, stagnated my growth and prevented my gain. I've been down bad and misused, left alone without a clue.Existing is a challenge to all who possess life, but not enough of a stronghold toprevent the redemption and prosperity that does not exist in strife.Losing a majority, is not losing it all because in order to get up, you must fall. In the midst of writing this book, I lost my youngest son, which ultimately damaged my spirit, but encouraged me to finish in order to save the lives of others.Whether you be a mother, father, sister, brother, friend, or associate, allow the testimonial experiences to pierce your brokenness and manifest a newfound knowledge of the volumes that life choices and its consequences evoke.You will always be approached with many choices. Choices where you can weigh effects but can't predetermine the permanence of its consequences. As I have mentioned many times in the book, conferences, or day to day conversations, the choices you make will follow you forever because they are irreversible and lead to the future steps of your life. As you make these choices understand that the power for a good or bad future resides in your thoughts and actions. What will you choose without force? It's your choice.
