General note In this book, I share my struggles with abject poverty growing up in Ethiopia and when I decided to pursue philosophy. I also tell the role of providence in making it possible for me to pursue my passion philosophy despite numerous setbacks. This book is on an intellectual journey of a single-minded commitment to pursuing philosophy as my calling and meeting numerous obstacles along the way. Overcoming obstacles in the pursuit of the life of the mind shapes the life of the person. I have learned a lot from too many setbacks on my joyful intellectual journey, and this book tells that story in detail. The last three chapters of the book are on philosophical topics. The rest of the book is a long story of how providence met poverty in my life as a Christian philosopher in the making! In the pages of this book, I also engage in a sustained reflection on the meaning of vocation or calling and how one can discover one's calling as I reflected on my calling. It is my hope that my readers will likewise engage in a reflection on their own calling, if they have any, or they will take time to reflect on what it means to have a calling in one's life, whether they are believers and non-believers. One's calling has a deep connection to what one takes to be a meaningful life. I argue that even atheists have a calling in their lives that sits well with a theistic view of the world all of us share as fellow human beings.
