About a year ago, or so, I provided a book that I believe could be meaningful to you as you navigate through your time on this planet.
Who does that? I asked myself that question before I took such a presumptuous step. My answer: your PopPop, “the man at the top of the clan” ( for a little while yet).
Well, once again I ask that you indulge me. What I attempt to lay out for you is something you don’t learn in school nor will you read on your smart phone. It is what I learned in my (soon to be) 88 years, during which my passion has been to discover the who and why of my life.
Why do I think it is important for me to pass this on to you? Because I have seen a lot of change in the time I’ve been here and you will as well. I believe what I have to say will help you to better cope with the twists and turns that will occur as you travel your own unique path through life.
This writing takes the form of a mini-series, with installments recurring weekly. It will take about two months to complete. Each post will take about 10- to 25 minutes to read. The format of this writing includes the following:
A famous quotation or two (when appropriate},
A recounting of my own experience over the years (May be useful as background for family tree enthusiasts) and what I am trying to get you to think about , questions for you to ask yourself, some comments and suggestions when I think appropriate
And finally, an opportunity to add a comment if you wish to.
