I have spent more than fifty years in spiritual pursuit. I want to reach enlightenment which I feel cannot occur within the parameters of this reality. However, one can move oneself to proximity. I've never planned to be a spiritual teacher and hence I've been reluctant to publish. But, with publishing I open myself up to widespread instruction from those who read my words and are moved to help me grow. I, in turn, hope that my modest words in some way return the favor.
This book talks about my journey and at times grows philosophical. That is who I am. I ground my philosophy in the grit of my life and try to be a traveling companion sharing the road with my brothers and sisters also seeking enlightenment.
Oh, I really am Granddad Bob. I have five grandchildren: three boys and two girls who range in age from one to fourteen years. I was a stay-at-home parent to their parents. My life has been unique.
For those interested in such things: BA Philosophy; MA European History; MPA, Public Administration; and, initial PhD work in Public Policy (Knowledge Utilization). I am also a produced playwright and former assistant director with professional theater.
