Synopsis:

THIS IS A SPIRITUAL BOOK BASED ON MY LIFE AND OBSERVATIONS, ALSO CALLED THE 3L'S / LAW-LOVE-LIFE / OR "LLL". I HOPE / PRAY THAT THIS HELPS ALL OF YOU AND HOPE YOU ENJOY THIS BOOK.

About the Author: THIS IS A CUSTOMARY WAY OF INTRODUCING MYSELF TO THE READERS, AND ADDITIONAL THOUGHTS. I SPENT ONE YEAR ON A DAIRY FARM, ALMOST 2 YEARS IN A MACHINE SHOP, I GOT MARRIED AND TWO MONTHS TO THE DAY I WAS DRAFTED. MY FATHER WAS A DENTIST. WHEN I GRADUATED DAD SAID HE WOULD SEND ME TO ANY COLLEGE I WANTED TO GO TO. I TOLD HIM I WAS NOT READY TO GO TO COLLEGE. SO I WENT TO THE FARM! HE DID NOT LIKE BEING A DOCTOR SO HE BECAME A DENTIST. HIS FATHER WAS A DOCTOR, "GENERAL" PRACTICE. MY DAD'S MOTHER USED TO SING AT FUNCTIONS IN THE WHITEHOUSE. THEY ARE ALL FROM D.C. AS A CHILD WE TRAVELED FROM A TOWN NORTH OF PITTSBURGH, PA. BACK TO D.C. EVERY EASTER, WHILE HIS FAMILY WAS STILL LIVING. MY DAD WAS ONE OF SIX CHILDREN, HE WAS THE OLDEST. HIS FATHER TOLD HIM HE MUST BECOME A DOCTOR. DAD USED TO HITCH THE HORSE UP TO THE BUGGY AND ASSIST HIS FATHER IN MAKING HOUSE CALLS. THEY LIVED ON 10TH STREET, THE SAME SIDE OF THE STREET AS FORD THEATRE, WHERE PRESIDENT LINCOLN WAS ASSASSINATED. AND BY THE WAY I THINK LINCOLN WAS WRONG IN CAUSING THE CIVIL WAR I WOULD NEVER HAVE ADVISED HIM TO DO IT. I WOULD HAVE TALKED HIM OUT OF IT. THERE WAS ANOTHER WAY, WITHOUT BLOODSHED. I WOULD HAVE LIKED TO HAVE BEEN IN CONGRESS AT THAT TIME. DAD WAS BORN IN MAY 1870 AND PASSED IN JUNE 1953. MY MOTHER WAS BORN IN APRIL 1905 AND PASSED IN JANUARY 1990. I AM THE THIRD OF FIVE CHILDREN.
