Meet the Author
Uno is happily married to his best friend and a gospel music icon, Peju Okon, and blessed with two wonderful sons. Uno and his family live in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, where they enjoy the incredible cultural diversity of the city and have learned to gratefully adapt to Edmonton’s long, drawn-out winter seasons.
Gratitude is an attitude that helps you see the message in the mess, the testimony in the test, and the profit in the pain. Once you get it right by inculcating an attitude of gratitude, things change—first within you, and eventually around you.
