One Billion Seconds Behind the Wall: Pariah is the true story of a man who virtually wasted the first billion seconds of his life on reaching outward for things that were not important. This includes his first two years in prison. Then, he was inspired to change and spend the next billion seconds improving himself and being grateful for what he had. He read over four thousand books, especially The Bible; he trained his body and achieved strength, health, and peace; he reached inside himself and improved a little more each day. This story will hopefully inspire the reader to make their own decision to be happy every day, learn from the author's mistakes and make a brighter future for themselves.
