Description
Being a product of the Baby Boomer generation during the 60's and 70's resulted in many traumatic twists and turns in the life of Bruce Codrington. A quiet, shy, and lonely child, he enjoyed daydreaming and planning to become an architect/designer or a bus driver. Life seemed like so much fun for him during the 60's. That was of course until the Black Power movement, peer pressure, race relations going into the toilet, and the most evil demon of all--DRUGS. Bruce shares his story from the heart with deep, honest emotions that will keep you wondering how he survived. His experiences will make you laugh, cry, search your own soul, and feel his victory as he unfolds his journey to overcome all odds, learning to love himself again. From out of his deep, dark world of drug addiction, incarcerations, loneliness, depression and feelings of being unloved came the blessings of a woman that helped to change his life forever. Full Circle--From Addiction to Affection is a must read for any person that has ever felt that there is no victory in the power of prayer or that love cannot conquer all.
