The Thing Is...

The Thing Is …. Years Ago On Sleepless Nights I Arose And Began To Write About Meaningful Events Of My Life. I Am Now 94 Years Of Age But Began Writing When I Was 83. “The Thing Is” … All Of Us Can Learn From Stories Of Others And I Am Sharing Mine With My Great-Grandchildren Or Anyone Else Willing To Read This Book.Mother Used To Say: “Ellis” (My Middle Name Used When I Was A Kid) “Ellis It Will Be A Miracle If You Live To Grow Up.” Daddy Used To Say “Son I Don’T Know Why You Have To Learn Everything The Hard Way?” My Stories Prove The Accuracy Of Their Early Musings.The Thing Is … Maybe My Great Grandchildren Can Learn A Thing Or Two From The Remembrances Of My Rambunctious Childhood Long And Loving Marriage And A Work Life Inspired By Jesus Christ.The Thing Is … Good Things Can Come From The Experiences Of Life. The Bible Tells Us: “All Things Work For Good For Those Who Trust And Love The Lord.” So Here Follows A Story Or Two Including “Good Things” I Learned Or Experienced As I Trusted The Lord And Lived My Long And Blessed Life.Frank Roweseptember 12 2023
