Do Different (Paperback)

Eddie's life changed forever when he hauled himself out of the open sewage pit on the family farm. He had just saved an escaped pig from drowning, and suddenly he knew that he wasn't going to be a pig farmer! Then he remembered his Grandpa's words;- 'When you get to a certain age, it won't matter what you have, as long as you're comfortable, and have a roof over your head. What will matter is what you have done with your life. Whatever you do, don't follow the crowd, but do something different.' Eddie decided to do different and this is his dramatic story as events naturally unfolded over a 25-year period, between 1983 and 2008. First, Eddie served for three eventful years in Northern Ireland, during the height of 'The Troubles'. Then he backpacked around the world and upon his return to the UK, worked in several, but very different, jobs. However, everything changed when he became friends with a flamboyant character in the music business, and organised a massive festival, with no previous experience! Eight years later it was time for a new challenge. He sold everything to go and live in Brazil for five years, with no job, contacts or direction, and it was the best decision that he had ever made! But even so, nearly everything in Eddie's life had been a passing phase, apart from his passion for Chelsea FC, over land and sea. Are you worried about the future or trapped in the past? To do different is to examine the influences behind your choices because there is always a consequence. Why not create a world in your own image, and resist becoming a prisoner of individual or societal expectations. It's good to do different in a crazy world that always wants you to be somebody else.
