Autorenporträt

The reader is advised that this entire document is, the whole story of the author as life unfolded. I do have some observations to highlight for readers of all ages.

With each passing birthday most of us reflect on how fast time goes by, and bemoan the, lack of achievement. We each have a shopping list of plans or goals we envision for our life. One day we look back, and wonder where time went, and question what we failed to achieve.

In my early years I did no planning for the future. Looking back I am overwhelmed at what others accomplished while I went along for the ride. Just to reflect on some of the things that have occurred in my four score plus year's highlights how fast life goes by:

Transportation has gone from the model 'A' car, to infinity and beyond.

Crank style wall phones have been replaced by the internet and satellites.

Kerosene lamps and lanterns have fallen before electricity and LED lights.

Tent revivals have been replaced by mega churches and jet setting evangelist.

Medical procedures can now be performed by someone halfway around the world.

The bible refers to Wars and rumors of wars. I have been exposed to World War II, Korean police action, and Vietnam just to hit the big ones. It seems that we have never had total freedom from conflict and strife in my memory.

Conflict and chaos is found in any geographical location.

Human body parts are swapped out like the old time spare tires

Entertainment has moved from the stage to the living room.

The list goes on, however: I close by reminding the reader that one truth has not changed in the past two thousand years.

Thanks for traveling back through time with me.
