Part memoir, part invitation to see one another more clearly, Merritt mixes laugh‑out‑loud storytelling with unflinching reflections on faith, race, and identity—and the perspective that follows a major cancer surgery. The result is a warm, optimistic love letter to life that feels both personal and universal.
Offered in honor of Opal Lee, this is a book to pass to a friend or bring to book club when you want hope to lead the conversation. Your bid directly supports the Tarrant County Democratic Party’s voter outreach, protection, and education initiatives in 2025.
