Life Is Funny [EPUB ebook] 

A gambler to the end I started talking to God again and told Him all about my dream. I had one life. This was it. I reached for the stars but little did I know what God had in store for me. Life is funny. If only I knew then what lay ahead; deep and murky shark-infested waters. My heart was filled with naïve optimism. That day I grabbed a rainbow and had no intention of letting go. On the 29th of November 1985, after 29 years incarceration, I left the post office. I said my goodbyes, hugged my old friends, and sat down to write.
