And yet how sobering to think that a life's meaning can be summed up (for others, not for the one living it) in a single sentence. <BR/><BR/>I also like the comment from The Remembering Site, because it didn't link to the site. That kind of unworldliness must be a sign of honesty.<BR/><BR/>Great good luck to you with the book launching -- we'll all be eager for it.Richard Lawrence Cohenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01951947957345891398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11695927.post-1170257312651531042007-01-31T07:28:00.000-08:002007-01-31T07:28:00.000-08:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11695927.post-1170225087515807822007-01-30T22:31:00.000-08:002007-01-30T22:31:00.000-08:00elsie: Anyone who wants to veer off-topic to say t...elsie: Anyone who wants to veer off-topic to say they ordered by book is most welcome to do so.
