Publisher's Synopsis
My first book was, The Life and times of the Rich Hobo. This book: Living the Dream, is an extension of the last book. I picked the name Living the Dream. In all of my books, I say that all the time. Some days, I feel like I am living the dream. I wrote the book because I had so many stories to tell everyone, so many things I have done, places I have seen, and people I have met over the years. I am hoping and praying that my book will help people get closer to God. I get to share my experiences, strengths, and hope with my readers. I get to write about my Christian walk with God. One day at a time, how I have been in recovery for thirty-two years.
There are some crazy stories. I want to tell people about God, and how He has changed my life. How God takes care of me so much. I get to write about His love and grace in my life. A lot of stories of the wacky things I have done. The miracles I have seen on the streets. Also the miracles I have seen in Church. My traveling stories, freight train hoping, street living, I want to let people know the stories of street living. Living with so much pain, off and on the streets. My mental and physical problems, I deal with daily. The things that haunt me.
In my book, I want to let people know about my business and my daily struggles. How I get treated selling my wares. I also write about how many nice people have blessed me, writing about me, being a hobo at heart. I put a God story in each chapter, or I write it at the end of the chapter. I really enjoy telling and writing stories. That is what, living the dream all about. Loving what I do for a living. Getting to do what I want when I want to. Life is a vacation. I get to tell stories of the angels that are watching over me. How a man can live off of God's blessing, and his wits. Telling stories of how much I love trains, even when I lived on the streets. I told people I was living the dream. God bless you. Enjoy. See you down the road.
