About the Book

Joe, an elderly gentleman in his eighties, sat listening to a speaker on TV. The speaker asked his audience, "Where has your journey in life taken you? What were your challenges? How did you overcome these challenges? What are your happy memories? Have you written down your journey for your posterity to enjoy? Or, will you become just a name in your family's history, unknown by the third generation?" Joe had never thought about such questions. It caused him to realize that everyone born must take life's journey, like in the old song, "Life is like a mountain railway." Some will bear the scars of that journey. Some will meet the trials and experiences in life and overcome them. Others will look back at the "good old days" with nostalgia. He could see the wisdom of writing down his journey through life, telling both pleasant and not so pleasant things, and how each situation was handled; that perhaps it might help his descendants as they face life's challenges. Going to his computer he began to write.
