About this ebook
I wrote this book to celebrate that I am ninety-three and am asking whether I can tell you something? I am not the last word in anything! However, you may find some of what I say interesting, indeed, even inspiring. Why don't you read my book, then decide for yourself. That's my picture on the front cover taken at age ninety-three.
