    Lord take this cup away from me....
    "I can't son, it belongs to you"
    But Lord this cup is too much for me to bear!
    "You can handle it, Jesus drank from the cup"
    But Lord I aint Jesus!
    "But He lives in YOU!"
    But Lord I am weak!
    "His strength works best when you’re weak"
    But Lord have you seen what's in my cup?
    "Yeah I know I put it in there!"
    But Lord there is sickness in my cup!
    "And I called you to heal"
    But Lord there is confusion in my cup!
    "And I called you to teach"
    But Lord there is pain in my cup!
    "And I called you spread my Word"
    But Lord why do I have to drink THIS cup?
    ”Because I want you to act like my Son!”
    Last question Lord....Does everyone have to drink this cup?
    "Everyone has to taste their reality"

    Therone Shellman, Author, Entrepreneur and Visionary says

    Greetings!
    Survivor I Changed the Rules Part 1 available via kindle
    Therone Shellman the elder of four children who were taken away from their mother when he was four and thrown into the NYC foster care system. In and out of different homes he and his sister went. He was a child thinking about adult issues like survival and having to look out for his younger sister. At the age of fifteen dissatisfied with the dysfunctional parents who adopted them both, and a school system he felt was biased he turned his back on both and sought the streets. From hustling at fifteen, to pulling stick ups at sixteen, Shellman found himself at the age of seventeen being sentenced to ‘four to twelve” years in prison.
    In an honest and brutal way Shellman tells his life story from a powerless child to a power crazed and misdirected youth, survival of the fittest on the streets and in some of the roughest prisons in New York State. Throughout the story you witness his search for self peace and spiritual growth as he sought to balance his troubled life which would ultimately lead him through real life threatening situations where by chance and a little wit he would overcome time and time again. And finally some way some how an awakening rose up within him to change his life and write stories which would help others.
    "Survivor" I Changed the Rules is not just a memoir or biography, it is a testament about how strong the human spirit is and the ability within all of us to rise above the chains which imprison us.

    This sounds like a great read. I will have to put it on my wishlist for now. I am in classes right now and have a 35 page paper due at end of june. So I am currently doing research on that on top of taking another class. But I will definitely be getting it after summer classes are over.
