This book of poems is a healing process for me.Living through many losses, my father died before I was two years old, my mom just after I migrated to the USA (I did not attend her funeral because of culture shock and fear of the unknown), and my only son on the night of December 25, 2006.At the age of sixty-six, of course, there are many other losses. Early retirement is a loss of not much outside connections, but I have a choice: to enter the room of suffering and mourning or to enter the room of happiness, choose life, and be happy. Turn my lemons into lemonade.The joy of the Lord is your strength. Finding the courage and the strength to greet each day with daily exercise, eating the right foods, drinking plenty of water, not worrying, and feeding on the Word of God.Happiness is sure to become a way of life.
