1Have you ever been a prisoner of someone else ideas of you? This book is a bold declaration of what you don't have to tolerate, such as others' opinions that don't line up with your self-identity including your own negative feelings, emotions, circumstances, and culture. If you don't declare who you are, then who will? How can you stand up against what can be a strong opponent against your identity? The intention of this book is to help you identify and combat those things by helping you launch your own resistance. You don't have to be a victim to abusive situations, prey to stereotypes, or labels. This battle won't be easy instead it will take courage as it does for me. But I believe with determination and appropriate assistance, we can win! So, join me in raising the flag of resistance by declaring, "I Won't Be!" I am a wife of 36 years, four children, and six grandchildren. I love taking long walks with my hubby and writing, which includes writing poetry and inspirational. I was inspired to write because of a promise I made to my mom years ago. I am also inspired by reading other authors' book that has encouraged me through the years. My hope is to be able to encourage other's through life difficult situations in the same manner. I have already written one book entitled, "Tent Master One on One Encounter" that has been rated five stars on Amazon.
