When it comes to the topic of "loving yourself first" it always amazed me how many different interpretations one can receive after stating the phrase. Also amazing to me is the number of people today who may see this statement as one being selfish or negative. I believe quite contrary to that. I was born in one of the most dangerous cities, during one of the most dangerous eras, where poverty and substance abuse both were government funded. Where broken glass in the streets, urine smelling staircases, incarceration and death by homicide where all as normal as gravity. I was shielded from all of the world's atrocities by my parents until the world demanded I looked at its darkness in the face. This book is the journey of a naive mamma's boy coming of age. This is the story of a coward who learned bravery through trials of fire. This is a story of a heart turning cold and then learning how to love again. This is a story about self-discovery. Learning how to say yes to honor, yes to integrity, yes to sincerity, yes to loving yourself and "No" to everything else. -LaMont Anthony Wright AKA Graffiti Bleu
