The Story behind the life and writing of truths is the autobiography of Lorenzo, aka Charles L. Gooden, his awakening life from the death of his father, and mother leaving while young which forged him into a life that ultimately gave him insight into his failed marriage and relationships. This awakening would enhance his understanding and awareness in the search of God in the midst of adversity. The Perfect Imperfect Life is a grand gesture that life is about finding yourself, your purpose, and your gift to be shared in the world. Life was never intended to be "perfect", but it is what you make of it. Finding true love first starts with finding self, then sharing the gift of love and acceptance with others. Forgiveness and grace comes easy to extend to others once you admit that you, too, are in need of that same grace. Will you answer the call? Will you reach beyond your fears, mistakes, insecurities, doubts, confusions, and pain? Navigating through the imperfect life with grace and style makes one perfect. Simply because you accept who you are. There is so much more on the other side of that acceptance!
