Lessons I Learned

These short stories are in three sections (1) About me (2) About My and Your

Relatives and (3) About Little Lessons I Learned. Each story represents a true

part of my life as I lived it, saw it and remember it.

At the end of each story is "What You Might Expect to Learn from my experiences"

and perhaps a quote from a famous person or "the little black book" as I call

the Bible.

Most of the general information can be applied to your daily life. The details of

each event might just help you avoid some of the same mistakes I made. Learn

when to use your "yes" your "no" and even when "maybe" is the best response.

The stories relate to my childhood, teenage years, careers,marriage, motherhood,

retirement and other wisdom I learned through life.

In fact, this book gives fundamental life and living advice, regardless of what age

you are when you read this, or what experiences you have had so far in your life,

Overall I hope you find the book informational, educational, enjoyable and easy to

read. That way you will not feel that you wasted time reading the book, but rather

that this book helped you understand and cope better with challenging situations

that might happen in your life.
