Opis

Why Alyssa? When I first met her, I was intrigued about the whole female racing thing, for a minute. It's not like she's the first. Other than that, she seemed - normal. She was cool and all, but not like Gandhi. Most people want to read a story about someone who had overcome incredible odds, like Nelson Mandela, Joni Eareckson Tada or Harriet Tubman. Or they want to read the story of someone who was wildly successful like Bill Gates or Pat Summit so that they can emulate their patterns of success. So why read about a regular ordinary young lady? I found out that she is anything but regular and she is certainly not ordinary. Right now, you don't know her, but hopefully you will get to know her through this small book about her trials, struggles, triumphs, sources of inspiration and her unwavering faith in God. Alyssa is no less than one of God's best works of art. As soon as I thought an appropriate metaphor was to compare her life to a song, she switched up on me and became a best-selling novel. Sometimes she seemed like a Broadway musical and then a dance. Often she is the media darling that is the center of everyone's attention and suddenly, she is the loner and the deep thinker. Some days she may seem bored and others she can't wait to see what is going to happen to her next. Alyssa is both predictable and an enigma and truth be told, so are we all. Well now you are probably really salivating. But before we get to all of that, let's look at Alyssa the person. She deserves that; after all she is not just a story - she is a individual, and...She is a race car driver
