This reading offers a different perspective on grief than my previous works—Pain Is Love and The Marathon. Both books prior to this are based on the grieving process with different focuses. They both were memoirs for friends I lost, written for the pain inside us. This one is different. This one is for the love inside you. The love that allows you to have self respect and be the biggest believer in yourself. The Love that I’ve been missing for a while now. Somewhere in my grieving process, I lost myself. And in hiding from that, I neglected this love. Between loving others and exhausting myself through football. I chased fulfillment through things I loved more than me, to help feel like myself when I didn’t even know myself anymore. When all I needed was inside of me, I kept reaching outside myself. This is me inviting you in on my journey to find what I’ve been missing. My message to you all, to not wait till you have no love left to give. To give yourself the truest love we’ll find in life—-Self Love
