A Beautiful Life with No Excuses

Book excerpt: In this book, Maria describes the details and struggles of her client, Raymond, as he spoke to her about his strong faith and how he balanced it by explaining that "Life is always beautiful" as long as you don't make excuses and live up to your word. You can only change yourself, and you can't fix others. This is his life story as he told it to Maria, and asked her to share it with everyone who is struggling with addictions, loss of their children or spouse, or any tragic circumstances. Raymond has carried on in spite of his own childhood trauma and very tragic events in his life. From his childhood to his marriage to the death of his three sons, he proves that having faith in God has taught him to fight the devil himself, and make the best of the good life that is here for the taking.
