I am asked by many loved ones, why the title Breaking Shackles: The Story of the Lowly Dishwasher most often. My response is questions you ask about a higher power and or about self. Breaking Shackles is a profound series about a young man destined to fulfill a walk for understanding. That understanding as a guide and gift to reach peace and stillness on earth most likely a lost art to humankind. While not being a victim everything was afforded to me for as long as I can remember. For some reason, I found myself always rebelling, living in a single-parent home with nine other siblings. I found myself following in my oldest brother footsteps to over a decade of incarceration at the age of twenty. This is the true story of being alone thrust into the penitentiary system while being assaulted, robbed, vulnerable, and taken advantage of. In this heart-wrenching first saga, the author learns a new way of life which leads to a Sibilance of tasting ultimate enlightenment to share with the world.
