Double
Luck is the story of a boy named
Lu Chi Fa who was born in China.
When he was three years old,
both his parents died leaving
him one thing: his name, Chi Fa,
which means "new
beginning." For an orphan
passed from relative to
relative, and even sold into
slavery, the name "new
beginning" was most
appropriate. Double
Luck's story is filled to the brim with
account after account of how the human
spirit can triumph. In the Chinese
language, the word "crisis" is
written with two symbols: One symbol
meaning "danger," and the
other meaning "opportunity."
Chi Fa's childhood certainly was filled
with crisis. It was fraught with danger.
But through his struggles, Double Luck
always looked for opportunity. His
amazing story will give every person who
learns of it, the best that life has to
offer - hope in days of despair and
strength in unfortunate times.
