With a Grateful Heart

Moving to somewhere new is always hard. Even moving to a new town or city can seem strange and leave you with a feeling of homesickness. But what if you moved to another country? One that was a whole continent away and as different from your home as you could imagine? This was what faced Kwabena Amankwah when he moved from the small Ghanaian city he grew up in, to continue his education and make a new life for himself in the United States. In his book, With a Grateful Heart, he documents his journey from a homeless young man with little more than a dream, to a successful career in corporate America. Along the way, Kwabena endured many difficulties which could easily have triggered his return to Ghana, but he persevered and continued to build the life he had promised himself. Read his inspirational story here. You will be raised from the depths of pity and frustration to a new level of hope as Kwabena revives his fortunes and shows how success can be found through hard work and perseverance.
