It was nothing that I've expected to come from David Archuleta himself. I guess I really do not know him, WE the fans do not know him that deeply, aside from the fact that he's really very nice to people and to his fans most especially. But this book is a very deep affirmation of that goodness that we see in him, from how he treats his fans and the people whom he works with, to the way he talks, the way he smiles, the way he sings, his belief, and just how genuinely good he is inside and out.
This book is truly inspiring. To a true fan like myself, this book will surely make you laugh, cry and smile. From the very start to the end, I find him very consistent and very clear on what he's really trying to convey to the readers; his purpose, his drive and his belief. To have this book is truly a gift from David. It is through this book that we get to know him a bit more. Here, he shows how mature he is deep inside (though he looks oh so young physically), it's Amazing!
The purpose of this book goes beyond knowing more about David but sending a very important message on believing in one's dream, SELFLESSNESS, perseverance, trusting in one's instincts , believing in the power of prayer and deepening one's relationship with the Heavenly Father .
I know I would read this book all over again and again and would share this to everyone, because this book has touched me, has inspired me and has brought joy and healing to my soul.
I just had to mention the last line though: "And remember, even you can't sing, you can always plant a tree..." haha. yes, that's how he got his EAGLE!!
(I had to be extra careful in handling the book though, since there were times when tears would just fall, and you don't wanna ruin a page, do you? I wish I could just highlight some lines and dog ear some pages that contains the lines and phrases that struck me most, but no, this book is way too precious. )
