This was a good read. It is sad what this gentleman went through to get the basic necessity to elevate his program. This book gripped me from the beginning to the end. The author did an excellent job with his writing. Kudos Mr. Haymer and I hope that your love for music is renewed within you and that this book springboards your redemption to greater heights.

The Lion
An old African proverb says that we will never know the true story of the hunt until we hear the lion’s side of what happened. I’m glad that the lion had a chance to tell his side of the story.
