FERNDALE, Wash. - June 24, 2021 - (Newswire.com)
Charles Livingston, a former member of the U.S. Air Force, has completed his new book "On Greenwood We Grew": a personal memoir detailing his own journey following his mother from the rough and tough country to the bustling city.
Author Charles Livingston writes, "It takes a lot to live in the bright lights and big city, especially if you accept everything at face value. A person must be both knowledgeable of who and what to trust. You also need hunger, as well as energy—hunger to make life work for you even when you want to give up, energy to test and or rebuild or modify current culture when and if necessary. If Mary was to survive her life change, from country girl to wife and mother in this city, she would need to have those attributes or develop them very fast. Her survival would depend upon large quantities of faith, morals, and judgment. She would need to be able to pass that on to her young and growing family so that their lives might grow up more laudable than did her own. The wolves in sheep's clothing, glittering lights, and the hungry predators all seem to have plans of misdirection and inanity."
Published by Newman Springs Publishing, Charles Livingston's heartwarming tale recounted much of Livingston's life as it was led and paved by his mother, Mary.
Having grown up with deep respect and admiration for his mother, Livingston felt compelled to share her story, and his, by means of written account with the younger generations of his family. The lessons of strength and endurance his mother taught him followed him through every step of his life. Though many of her signature phrases he had to figure out the meaning to on his own, Livingston felt prepared to conquer the world on his mother's heels. Mary often said, "Failure is never an option but instead an experience that would lead to a better outcome if presented again."
Readers who wish to experience this inspiring work can purchase "On Greenwood We Grew" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes & Noble.
