  “The way to reach God’s will is to go through life's trials & struggles. It means that to achieve any sort of heavenly state we must be tested. We 
  are guaranteed to fail some of those tests. That's ok as long as we learn from them and find the strength to continue traveling the road. We 
  become stronger by overcoming our failures and ultimately find the strength to reach our destination.” 
  “Larry is a modern-day crusader, The Larry Ray Hardin that you will see in much of this book is a younger, angrier version than the one I came 
  to know in San Diego. What makes Larry’s journey great is not just that he refused to be lured in by corruption as he walked the path through 
  hell. What makes it great is that he learned from his failures along the way, replaced anger with wisdom, and continued to walk the road to 
  heaven.”

  The Absent Minded Man - From...

  Jerome K. Jerome

  Jerome Klapka Jerome was born on the 2nd May 1859 at Belsize House in Caldmore, Walsall, England. 
  His family were reduced to poverty whilst he was a toddler owning to failed investments in the local mining industry. 
  After several moves in declining circumstances Jerome became a pupil at St Marylebone Grammar School.  His aim then was to go into politics, or even become a man of letters, but with the death of his father, when he was thirteen, and his mother two years later, now meant that he had to support himself and leave all thoughts of education behind. 
  He spent four years working for the London and North Western Railway, initially collecting coal that fell along the railway lines.  Thereafter, using the name Harold Crichton, he tried his hand at acting but the repertory company he joined was stretched in its resources and, at times, relied on the actors to purchase their own props and costumes.  After three years he tried journalism, teaching and work as a solicitor’s clerk.  All came to nothing.  Finally, in 1885, he had some success with ‘On the Stage―and Off’, a comic memoir collection of his stage experiences and his early attempts at acting.  
  Shortly thereafter he married and his honeymoon on the Thames became the inspiration for ‘Three Men in a Boat’.  This of course was a wild success, both critically and commercially, but also his creative high point.  
  Although he was now able to write full time, he was never able to attain all the heights of that classic humorous novel.  He remained a prolific writer of novels, plays and short stories and its from those classic works that these stories have been mined. 
  Jerome K Jerome died in Northampton General Hospital on the 14th June 1927 two weeks after suffering a paralytic stroke and a cerebral haemorrhage on a motoring tour.  He was 68.

  Now, after living with Cancer for more than half of her life so far, Felicity (with the help of her mother Jackie, and husband Greg) shares the story of her diagnosis, learning to live with her condition, and how she has managed to build a full and happy life beside the 'C'.
