Amazon.com description: Product Description: Mother, Watching Me Grow from Heaven is the snapshot of a real-life journey that we must all travel at one time or another. Structured in a poetic flow, filled with modern and old philosophy, and not bound to any rules. Amusing, inspirational, love centered, and sometimes painful with a spiritual influence that will truly awaken your sense of self. Having lost his own mother, "herself a teen," Chris relied on his grandmother's strong influence as he set forth to travel the world. Keeping notes from before, during, and after his 21-year military career, he now recants the good, bad, and ugly of his intense journey. Standby to be both compelled and inspired by this philosophical, and poetic real-life adventure. After closing the cover, his spell-bounding words will touch your soul and thereafter, your life, love, relationships and friends "will never be the same."
