    About this ebook

    “Everything outside of you is meaningless...for in my short life, I had traveled across the world, cavorting with some of the most beautiful women – none of which has born my child or will accompany me in the afterlife. Meaningless. Prior to my imprisonment, I was enslaved to worldly desires and misused my talents, never fully enjoying or understanding the prosperity of those days. Meaningless.

    For what good is it to desire a happy prosperous life if you will not conduct yourself in a manner to enjoy it? It's like giving life to an infant child that you will never love and support. Meaningless. What good is it to go in search of schemes that will only remove you from your loved ones – meaningless. Everything is meaningless, if it does not stand the test of time…”

    In his (memoir) My Life and My Charms, Vernon through his life, allows readers an intimate portrait of a young man using his and how this lead him to excess and incarceration and redemption.
