Some of these essays are mostly reflections; others are more opinionated with an ÒI Know IÕm Right!Ó attitude. Some describe the life of a kid, some a parent/wife/housekeeper, some a teacher. TheyÕre all perspectives of a writer and editor, one who has lived nearly eight decades. The stories and ideas come together to form a type of memoir, but theyÕre not so much about the writer as they are about the world we live in and our attitudes and adjustments to that world.
