Re: A STORY WORTH TELLING
Thanks, Aardi, my life HAS been full ... of both the "thrill of victory and the agony of defeat," but in the process, I have had ample opportunity to learn much, most of it by making many mistakes!
For many years now, my children have urged me to write my story for them. Finally, the series entitled "A DAD'S LEGACY FOR HIS CHILDREN" is the result. I hope that I have not waited too long, with too little lifetime left to complete. If I can help my offspring to avoid making the same mistakes, then that will be time well-spent. With this goal in mind, then, I must not glamorize my life, but be honest, and just tell like it was, no matter how it might hurt!
Thank you again for your interest and comment!
Have a great day!

My current material troubles seem trivial after reading your article. Your life sounds like a story worth telling. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Re: SAM
Thank you, so much! I know that this (even worse) has happened to others and that I am by no means alone.
Again, thank you for your sentiments.
