New Book Inspires Readers to Give Back

Berkeley, CA (PRWEB) January 25, 2008 -- Being the Difference: True Stories of Ordinary People Doing Extraordinary Things to Change the World, a new book by Darius Graham, reveals the stories of more than a dozen individuals that have gone beyond making a difference and, instead, have become the difference.

In Being the Difference, readers follow each individual on a journey of personal growth. For some, to achieve greatness meant overcoming significant hardships. Some were so frustrated with a problem that they had to do something about it, and others were simply following a life-long passion.

While each story is different, each individual exemplifies the idea that nothing is impossible, and despite the different paths that each individual took, each of them used their own triumphs to help others succeed. Through each profile, the book conveys the message that anyone can make a difference by using his or her own experiences and passion to help others, which is the author's definition of being the difference.

Engaging and uplifting, Being the Difference enables readers to see that no matter where they are in life or how little they have, there is always something that can be done to make the world a better place.

Being the Difference: True Stories of Ordinary People Doing Extraordinary Things to Change the World is available for sale online at Amazon.com, BookSurge.com, and through additional wholesale and retail channels worldwide.
