A Memoir based on actual events and the coming of age of a young boy mixed up and thrown into a life of uncertainty, filled with sexual, mental and physical abuse. Showing that the struggles of a child should not define who a person is and based on my life experiences it needs to be known that anyone can survive and triumph over any circumstances thrown their way. Robert H. Bruce, a kid from the streets of North Philly, as a child, poor, cocky and full of anger, rage and sadness. Triumphant over the shame of his past, growing into a responsible man, father and human being. Robert has never hidden from harsh realities, he has always taken from his past heartaches- lessons learned to build his life to what it is today-full of love, understanding and forgiveness. "I didn't quite realize just how difficult it was going to be to walk out of the shadows of my childhood" -Robert H. Bruce "We are all entitled to make mistakes, how we correct them is the key to victory" -Robert H. Bruce
