Are You Serious?

Book excerpt: So let me start off by saying, if “life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you gonna get.” (From the movie “Forrest Gump”) Some of mine are melted, because my life has not turned out the way I thought or intended it to be. Life has different challenges and obstacles that change us. This book is about some of the highs and lows of my life. The title “Are you Serious” was chosen because I believe that we sometimes take life too seriously. We don’t laugh enough at ourselves because we are too busy laughing at others to take the attention off ourselves. As you read each chapter you will see that my life has not always been easy. I had to endure some things because it comes from within. The upbringing of my Grandparent’s faith helped to sustain me while the fantastic four saved my life. I look back at some of the things I did and I have to ask myself, “are you serious right now?”
