Larry PlantLarry Plant, PT, has worked in healthcare as a physical therapist for over thirty years, and that has given him a glimpse onto the deeper meaning of Life. He has always enjoyed writing little stories, sharing and caring for those in his midst, but nohing like what has happened to him through the writing of this book. Larry has discovered that he has many meaningful, instructive, and quite humorous little stories to share with people, which are enlightening, worthwhile, and funny on many different levels. He has come to realize that nearly everyone has a story of value to tell that could quite possibly provide a much-needed spark of light and Life to the people in their midst. Life is beautiful! It is all that we have, and through these little stories, Larry has been able to connect, converse, and get engaged with people far and wide along his current pathway of Life. He now wants to open the door for others to get engaged in Life through stories in allegory by allowing for greater participation, appreciation, and engagement, which happens at the threshold of personal concern, connection, and care for another. This happens once we see each other as human beings, alive, in need, and worthy of our care, kindness, and love.Larry is grateful for his Life and the opportunities that have been afforded to him through a healthy dose of grace and a small slice of his own participation. He has learned that the most important thing in Life is to show up; knowing that that will look different for each and every person. His best friend and companion, Liu-da' Mee-la'' from Ukraine, came into Larry's meager life at a very meaningful time, and she was the one to throw open the doors to a much greater appreciation and grasp upon the true meaning of Life and freedom for all. Thank you, my little Liu-da' Meee-la'! Read More Read Less
