Reflections, Redirections and Reinventions: ...lessons learned

Throughout my life, I have learned many valuable lessons. I am a child of a divorce, a veteran, a drummer, a flag-waving American. I am a son of a man whose work ethic became embedded in me.I saw friends die in Vietnam, and I have lived through an earthquake. Traveling to over 45 countries, I have come to experience the world while learning to appreciate my birth country. I have shed tears of pride as my daughter gave her first sermon as a youth pastor. and tears of happiness as my son looked up in awe from his infield position on Rosenblatt Field in Omaha, representing Missouri State in the College World Series.But through all of that, I did not really learn who I was until I was in my fifties. In the past twenty years, I have learned some of the most important lessons of my life. This book will share the stories of my life experiences, my travels and my reflections upon them.
