This is the best book I have read in a long time, actually ever! It is so inspirational and uplifting. I recommend it to anyone and everyone! My daughter who is going to college in the fall also loved it-would make a great gift for any teenager! Great confidence booster!
I wish I could give it more stars!!!

This book touches your spirit and is simply beautiful. The photographs are beautiful and hearing the twins in each of their own voices discussing their lives as twins; family life; their struggles and their triumphs is a work to behold.They make you know that anything is possible and share the steps they've taken to attain their successes. Could not put it down.
For Those Who Are Scared of Facing Their Destiny
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I read this book in one sitting. It felt like a deep conversation that I'd have with two old friends at two in the morning. Calvin and Alvin's voices intertwine throughout the book to give this incredible view of their life which in many ways feels like one life. They say, "This is who we are and this is what we have experienced and this is what we have learned." What I heard is, "Be who you are and experience what you experience and learn from it." Their story is told simply, with love and reverence. Their story is one that hands you, the reader, courage as if it is their gift to you. Their story encourages you to look within yourself and say, "Oh yeah, this is who I am supposed to be. How did I get so lost? How do I return to where I need to be?" Go to YOUR destiny. I will meet you there.
