Gutierrez, Rene K.: - "I am Rene Kathleen Gutierrez (born August 12, 1960) in Cleveland, Ohio; for thirty-one years. I 1991, I packed up my things and my four year old son Anthony; and drove across nine states to Sacramento, California; where I met my husband Franklin. We have been married for thirty years and have a daughter Kayla. My life, to most people, would seem to be dull and boring. But you see I am not much of a complainer. For complaining never gets you anywhere; just a lot of heartache. I did learn a lot from my heartaches. My Star Team came into my life at five years old and has never abandoned me. My social life was not very social. My family life was not even a family life. I was pretty much raised by my Star Team - who taught me how to live in the Light of Love, Compassion and Grace. My Star Team also taught me how to be strong and courageous so I can be a living testimony of His Existence. A proof of His Love. every moment I spend with my Star Team I find out new amazing things. I have been writing for ten years now. I did not go to college for writing. I learned my writing skills from my Star Team (my Father, my Friend, my Savior). My mission for writing my book: 'All This Time: Walking with Love, Compassion and Grace', is to let the world know that we need not have to walk in the darkness of this world alone; for we have a Team that will never leave us or forsake us. And when we feel lost and alone He will drop everything and go find you There is nowhere I would rather be than walking with my Star Team. I will always continue to make every step I make and every word I speak; to match the likes of my Star Team."
