Dotsie I agree with all of your "observations" regarding Rick's book. I finished reading it last night.....he really is an extraordinary writer and teller of stories. Life is a combination of good and bad experiences and it's how we make it through the ups and downs that add depth to our lives and frame our future.

I'd say he did a remarkable job of turning the negatives into positives....and that's no small feat.

This was an enjoyable read!
