    this book was responsible for initiating a big transformation in my life. every black man should read it.

      My sistah, friend and who I want to be when I grow up. Have followed her since the book One Day My Soul Just
      Opened Up. That title follows me from one year to the next. Some men can't ask for what they want because codependents don't always know what they want.

      I identify with her as a female parent trying to raise an African American son in America. Yes, conditioning our sons to be their best selves and reinforce to them regularly that they originated from kings and
      queens.

      Sir, thank you for your comnent. It actually makes me want to purchase the book even more!
      Would you mind sharing as little or as much, to exactly what impacted you most about the book and how it transformed you - and your life as a whole?
      Thank you in advance and please stay safe!

      It's because its truth!! This type of information (especially for black people) never gets promoted, instead we are constantly being bombarded with celebrity and gossip news. Information like this is transformative for your mind/soul and it will have you examining yourself and observing others around you. Plus you were open to truly hear and receive the message and that's why it tugged on your heart because it's pure. You truly are blessed because so many others are distracted and don't understand they have the power to control their life. Remember many are called but few are chosen.
