Struggling with life sucks. Being unhappy sucks. Being alone sucks. I was alone, unhappy and struggling with just staying alive when I was just in my early teens, but I discovered that regardless of how I started out in life my start had nothing to do with how I would end up and I would like to share my journey with you. I wrote this book to make a difference in the lives of those who think their life sucks. I believe my book has a universal message that can provide the answers to living a life filled with joy, peace, love and happiness. What's the mystery to happiness? There's no magic or secret formula! For many people their life doesn't suck. They are happy at peace with themselves and enjoying their life to the fullest.

My hope was to give them some simple lessons that they could immediately incorporate into their daily living to allow them to take on' whatever challenges their where facing. They loved it and encouraged me to spread the word to others of all ages who are finding life a tad tough. My book is a series of short sections (chapters) where I share my perspective on living a society that can present many roadblocks and obstacles to achieving life of peace, joy and happiness. Why would my perspective be worth reviewing? Well I started out in life as an abused kid, with one parent, living in poverty and found myself on the streets by the time I was fourteen. My life really sucked! But I managed to survive and become a happy person who is surrounded by many blessings. If I can figure out how to be happy from my start in life, I am confident that those who think their life sucks now can turn their sucked up life into one of serenity.

I’m psyched. I’m totally psyched. I’m not a loser. Who the hell am I kidding? Life sucks for Dave Miller—he’s broke, girlfriendless, and stuck in a dead-end job. Life sucks harder because his job is night manager at the Last Stop, LA’s finest vampire-owned 24-hour convenience store. Dave’s facing an eternity of turning the hot dogs and installing pork cracklins displays for Radu, his crappy boss and Vampire Master. It’s bad enough that Dave is clinging to his days as a vegetarian by refusing to feed off of humans, leaving him weak as a kitten and so not capable of superhuman feats of strength. But when he finds himself competing with psychotic surfer-vamp Wes for the affections of Rosa, a beautiful mortal with a romantic fixation on the dark side, life is about as sucky as it can possibly get.
