A Candid and Inspirational Story of a Man’s Salvation

Aug. 5, 2009 - PRLog -- Harold Longs was born into poverty and unfathomable violence.  

Harold watched his mother slowly kill herself—through drugs, alcohol and prostitution, and finally suffering a brutal death.  Harold was a witness to her death and that incident set Harold on a path of destruction.

Although his uncle and aunt informally adopted him, Harold never felt a familial connection and never felt safe.  In order to drive away the images of his mother’s death, Harold turned to the numbing effects of drugs.  In and out of incarceration and addicted to cocaine, Harold’s life began to mirror his mother’s; he was headed down a path of no return.

But miracles happen when we least expect them and, in Harold’s case, his came when a friend asked him to join a gym.  Harold found that he loved the sport of competitive power lifting and, with a newfound interest and sense of freedom, he was able to stop his drug abuse and win a world championship in the sport.

Written with great sensitivity and brutal honesty, God, Are You Mad at Me? is a heroic accomplishment about ending destructive patterns and playing the hand that life deals you with dignity and an enlightened perspective.
