I'm Not Broken
Author: Jesse Leon
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 0593466527
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 264
Book Description
In this unflinching and inspiring memoir, Jesse Leon tells an extraordinary story of resilience and survival, shining a light on a childhood spent devastated by sex trafficking, street life, and substance abuse. Born to indigenous working-class Mexican immigrants in San Diego in the 1970s, Jesse Leon’s childhood was violently ruptured. A dangerous and harrowing encounter at a local gift shop when he was eleven years old left Jesse with a deadly secret. Hurt, alone, and scared for his life, Jesse numbed his pain by losing himself in the hyper-masculine culture of the streets and wherever else he could find it—in alcohol, drugs, and prostitution. Overlooked by state-sanctioned institutions and systems intended to help victims of abuse, neglected like many other low-income Latinos, Jesse spiraled into cycles of suicide and substance abuse. I’m Not Broken is the heartbreaking and remarkable story of the journey Jesse takes to win back his life, leading him to the steps of Harvard University. From being the lone young person of color in Narcotics Anonymous meetings to coming to terms with his own sexual identity, to becoming an engaged mentor for incarcerated youth, Jesse finds the will to live with the love and support of his family, friends, and mentors. Recounting the extraordinary circumstances of his life, Jesse offers a powerful, raw testament to the possibilities of self-transformation and self-acceptance. Unforgettable, I’m Not Broken is an inspirational portrait of one young man’s indomitable strength and spirit to survive—against all possible odds.

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 530
Book Description
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The incredible true story of survival and salvation that is the basis for two major motion pictures: Unbroken and Unbroken: Path to Redemption. “Extraordinarily moving . . . a powerfully drawn survival epic.”—The Wall Street Journal Hailed as the top nonfiction book of the year by Time magazine • Winner of the Los Angeles Times Book Prize for biography On a May afternoon in 1943, an Army Air Forces bomber crashed into the Pacific Ocean and disappeared, leaving only a spray of debris and a slick of oil, gasoline, and blood. Then, on the ocean surface, a face appeared. It was that of a young lieutenant, the plane’s bombardier, who was struggling to a life raft and pulling himself aboard. So began one of the most extraordinary odysseys of the Second World War. The lieutenant’s name was Louis Zamperini. In boyhood, he’d been a cunning and incorrigible delinquent, breaking into houses, brawling, and fleeing his home to ride the rails. As a teenager, he had channeled his defiance into running, discovering a prodigious talent that had carried him to the Berlin Olympics and within sight of the four-minute mile. But when war had come, the athlete had become an airman, embarking on a journey that led to his doomed flight, a tiny raft, and a drift into the unknown. Ahead of Zamperini lay thousands of miles of open ocean, leaping sharks, a foundering raft, thirst and starvation, enemy aircraft, and, beyond, a trial even greater. Driven to the limits of endurance, Zamperini would answer desperation with ingenuity; suffering with hope, resolve, and humor; brutality with rebellion. His fate, whether triumph or tragedy, would be suspended on the fraying wire of his will. Laura Hillenbrand writes with the same rich and vivid narrative voice she displayed in Seabiscuit. Telling an unforgettable story of a man’s journey into extremity, Unbroken is a testament to the resilience of the human mind, body, and spirit.

Are you feeling broken and lost after a heartbreak? Do you want to learn how to turn your pain into power and move forward with confidence? Look no further than "I'm Broken and I'm Loving It." While the idea of loving a broken heart may seem counterintuitive, the concept suggests that through the process of healing, individuals can learn to appreciate their own strength and resilience. “My Heart is Broken and I'm Loving It” aims to inspire individuals to embrace their journey of healing with grace and strength. By choosing to see the beauty in the brokenness, one can emerge stronger and more resilient than ever before. What else can you find inside this book?

To sum up what this book is all about, here is an inspirational poem written by Brielle Sammer that is included in her book. “My Heart is Broken and I’m Loving It” By: Brielle Sammer I'm broken and I'm loving it, For through the cracks, the light does fit. My shattered heart, though it may ache, Is learning how to love and break. In love, I thought I found my all, But now I see, it was my fall. For in the breaking, I have learned, True love cannot be earned. It's found within the broken parts, The shattered dreams and broken hearts. For in the mending, we are whole, And in the healing, we find our soul. So here's to being broken, my friend, For in the breaking, our journey begins. To love and grow, to live and learn, To embrace the broken, and let it burn. For out of the ashes, we will rise, Stronger, braver, with wiser eyes. So let us love our brokenness, And find the beauty in the mess.
