It takes a village to raise a child and when that child is raised well, it will take him to feed the entire village. The most valuable and important things in life have very humble beginnings. Yet as you follow their background story you begin to realize that it were those humble beginnings that actually shaped and added value onto things. It is those hardships and sacrifices that made it worthy. The TINSTAHL tells us that, in the midst of darkness is where light is born, light is not born of light. A torch in the sun is worthless, yet that very same torch is worth every piece of ounce in the dark room. I was inspired to write these stories and share them with you. The aim is to make you understand and realise that the circumstances of yesterday and the challenges of today are what is shaping the brightness of your future. I hope you will find inspiration in these stories in the same way that I have. If you read them with an open heart, these stories will touch your soul and inspire your life in such an amazing way. As it stands, no one had ever read this entire book without crying (or at least get emotional). Not in a negative way but in an inspiring way.
