I am currently reading a new book named "The Life you Imagine" by Derek Jeter. I had the book for a while now, and I finally decided to be engaged in it. It is a book about life, and success and ethics in a way. I just realized that I like alot of books like this. Anyways, he also shares some stories about his childhood and teenage years (so on so forth) that deal with the topic of each chapter (It is an autobiography).
It is a great book. I love the way he doesn't only talk about how to live a life. He puts things in the book like, make your own decisions, and be sure to lead your own life. He also gives you examples of why to follow what he is saying, by giving his own life situations. In one part of the book, he says to always trust your parents, and listen to them. He says that when he was a tenn, he and his friends got in trouble for bothering some girls at a slumber party by throwing rocks at the window of their house. The reason why they got in trouble was because they were out too late, and D.J's. car was abandoned which led to his parents finding out, and him getting into trouble for being out past his curfew. So you should always listen too your parents (unless they are phsycos) because they know what is right for you.
Those who like baseball should read this book. I find it very interesting, as well as funny. I hope I will be able to write a book just like this, so I can help kids get their mind straight. Until the next time...
-love, peace, and feet.
Great blogpost Isaiah! I like how you expressed you thoughts and opinions on this book. This sounds like a book I would want to read because I like learning about lessons that help me be a better person.
