All things come and go. You might not think so, but all the things we want in life are unnecessary. True, people, places, and things may make us happy for a while, but in the long run, only we have the power to be in control of our continued happiness after they go. We are in the driver’s seat. We make our destiny. We decide what to do with our lives. Sadly, money seems to rule our world. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if our lives and the lives of others didn’t revolve around money? Granted, we need it, but we don’t need to love it. Our lives are more important than that. Make your life and the lives of others shine. Your life is all you have. Concentrate on making love, not money, so your life becomes worth something.
Your Life Is All You Have

Hello: I am a writer who directs your attention to life in the 'now'. My most recent masterpiece is Losing the Boomer Blues. This whimsical story is about 3 old friends traveling back in time to lose their boomer blues. I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area and fell in love with writing at a very early age. I have written many short stories and poems down through the years. I've won awards but more than that I have won the hearts of my readers. I became a member of the Oakland Art Association in the late '90s and devoted many years to creating collage art but never stopped writing. I decided to start writing Losing the Boomer Blues in 2016 and finished writing it in August of 2018. It was with great pride that I self-published it in October of 2018. This charming story appeals not only to my baby boomer counterparts but to those of all ages who find the Summer of Love a quest for peace, freedom, and equality. The struggle for unity will never die. We are the United States. Divided is an impossibility. View more posts
