About this ebook
I wonder what a great teacher would do in an empty classroom with no student!
I feel like a student now.
Perhaps I was going through one of the most defining life experiences as I wrote this book.
This book was meant to be. It lets me be.

I hope to wake up with a dream about You and me forever . . . even when sleeping with a reality without You now?
Preface
Experience is a great teacher, but the emphasis is rarely on the student.
I wonder what a great teacher would do in an empty classroom with no student!
I feel like a student now.
I am, perhaps, going through one of the most defining of life experiences
as I write this.
Interestingly, in my notebook’s folder is a business book project that I started a few years ago. Yes, a few years ago.
This was a natural progression, given my background in business and my having had the good fortune of coauthoring two books before.
But I am currently more motivated to address and manifest life issues first. Business can wait!
