An Author's Note


This book is a collection of individual essays and short stories. As you'll notice in the Chapter Index the essays and short stories cover a wide variety of subjects and ideas. All of the chapters were solely written by me. None were predetermined. At all times this blog to book conversion writing was creative. There with no outside influence or director feeding me lines. Just like life, this book’s content just kind of happened.

These writings and essays are based on my own existential and unique outlook on our nation, the world, people, media, life and the places which surround me. Like a piece of clay, my soul and perspective has the ability to be crafted, and changed, just like yours. My hope and goal for the readers of this book is to simply enjoy the literary journey, wherever it takes us.

My relatively youthful opinions on this subject like most folks are strong. I once aced a University of Texas undergraduate course containing this abortion topic with an A letter grade. The course was titled, "Contemporary Moral Problems." Yeehaw! From that now decades old course, our University professor taught us, pupils, that abortion pre-viable fetus in the mother's womb should be allowed . Pre-viable fetus means the organism is unable to live on it's own without the mother. Abortion with a living viable fetus should NOT be allowed. This occurs usually in the 3rd trimester of a woman's pregnancy. To reiterate post-viable fetus, abortion should NOT be allowed. It's pretty simple. This line of thinking, is to determine if the early life can survive on its own,...
