A way of life / Merlon Patrick Woodard.

Summary:

"My life has been an exciting journey. Born in the Great Depression and being raised up on a Sharecropper's farm in Johnston County, North Carolina, I can remember how poor everybody was. As time and years past me by, I can look back into those years. Now I was a young adult. I could see my future, so I made up my mind that there was a better way of life for me. I have been cautioned not to fall into a trap where I could not get out. The more I looked back at the past, the more I stride to become somebody that I could be proud of. In those early years I became a hard worker with a good mind to go with it. I determined that someday there would be a better life. I must not let it slip by. Now is the time to prove to myself what the future holds for me. It is what I do right that will make the difference. -- Back cover." -- Back cover.
