BRADENTON, Fla., July 23, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- "Why me?" We have all asked this question at some point in our lives especially when harsh reality hits us. The only difference is how we choose to respond to this terrible ordeal. Some of us spend a lifetime trying to find the answer to the question "why". Others just accept it as a part of life and move on, stronger after the storm has passed. Author Omar Vega shares an inspiring story of An Incarcerated Mind... Set Free. Read on and discover how each journey leads us to our final destination in life.
Charlie Ordonez is the only child of a middle-class Puerto Rican family that lived in White Plains, New York. At a young age, he saw his father working hard to support their family, so when he unexpectedly died, it hit Charlie very hard. He felt that life wasn't fair because it took his father before his time and left him and his mother a heavy burden to bear. During this trying time in life, he encounters Willie, who has a "get rich quick" money scheme. Charlie thinks that this may be his way out for him, but instead gets himself involved in a situation he wasn't ready for. Will Charlie regret letting his emotions cloud his judgment? Is it too late to find redemption?
The choices we make every day are the baby steps that determine the final destination to our destiny in life. Whether it be positive or negative is depended on the way we handle the obstacles that approach us during our journey. Charlie has a choice whether to go along with Willie's quick cash scheme or listen to the advice of his friend Teddy. But after his father's death, Charlie hasn't been on good terms with God. He begins to question everything even if he isn't ready to accept the answers to his questions. An Incarcerated Mind... Set Free will answer the many answers you have been looking for and change the way you view your life. Get a copy of this fascinating story and realize the power to master your life.
An Incarcerated Mind... Set Free will be featured at this year's New York Library Association event in Saratoga Springs, NY.
About the Author
Born and raised in White Plains New York. Omar Vega was brought up in a religious household. His parents raised us to be God fearing Catholics, but as he grew older, he began to question his upbringing and shy away from certain beliefs that he was brought up on. In doing so, the author went through certain experiences which led him back to God, and helped him to form a closer relationship with Him. He feels that some of the things he went thru were a reason for me to start writing and help others who, once like me are questioning the Ways of life and it's constant turmoil. Hopefully his writing helps. Vega currently lives in Florida with his wife and our three kids. He is currently going to school, and working on his second book.
