A Hand To Guide Me: Leaders & Legends Celebrate The People Who Shaped Their Lives

This new book is one I found something truly profound in this new found book written by LEGENDARY actor and author with his first book; Denzel Washington. In this book, Denzel writes of his own personal story; along with other Legends & Leaders in the world that tells of their PERSONAL stories that defined a moment that FOREVER shaped their lives. Without giving too much away, this intimate reflection proves that one helping hand can change their lives.

From actors to those in government, along with many, many more, this book may give you a different respect in a brand-new light and perspective after seeing their perspectives.

Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it. - Proverbs

"Show me a successful individual and I'll show you someone who didn't want for positive influences in his/her life." - Denzel Washington

For Denzel, the center of his everything from the time he was 6-yrs-old. From where he learned to play ball, learned to focus and set his mind on a goal, where he learned how to be a man was the Boy's Club.

Others speaking in this book that speak of their own personal moments are of the following:
ICONIC boxer Muhammad Ali, Screenwriter & author Antwone Quinton Fisher; Actor Danny Glover, Whoopi Goldberg; Retired Juvenile Court Judge Glenda Hatchett; actor Mario Lopez, Musician John Mellancamp. Plus Many, Many More. Moments that either reflect on what made them and/or FOREVER shaped their lives and perspectives.




While this blog may be short, the reasons in which I can't describe, are that the stories told are best written by those whom stories were reflected.
