Lemonade Life: A Survivor’s Story: When Life Gives Green Lemons

Life is what You Make of it. Lloyd S. Daley was born in a field of bitter lemons. During his early life, he fought circumstances in mute isolation and anguish as schoolchildren and naysayers tormented him for his poverty, hand-me-downs–even his earnestness in matters of faith. At age 11, Lloyd was shipped off to the sire he barely knew. He was reviled and ignored by his biological father, denied basic love –as well as schooling and acceptance by this stranger and unknown stepmother. Helping him emerge from his humble beginnings was his rock, his mother, who believed all people had talent, dynamism, a drive to goodness–and a hunger for betterment. Making his way to the United States. Daley took life’s assorted assaults as learning opportunities. He overcame self-doubt in adversity, even major illnesses, by listening intently to his muses, who nurtured, aided ad guided him, bolstered by a by a supportive and loving God. This meaningful biography–from the hand of a now-polished diamond in the rough-is nothing short of what all hopeful foreigners come to U.S. shores to achieve. Lloyd S Daley has managed to overcome obstacles, resolve brutal memories, educate and hoist himself into a solid, contributing citizen. This volume is a remarkable testament to those not born to platinum privilege, but who teach themselves to overcome and achieve. This is a testament to making lemonade, even from the bitter of lemons. Reading it humbles, yet elevates, the reader into the possible glories we can all achieve if we keep faith–and work as earnestly as we can.
