About

My grandfather slowly slide to the ground as he leaned against a fence post. The team of horses, Prince and Pat, were waiting patiently as he called for my brother and me to come over and join him. As we made ourselves as comfortable as anyone could be, while leaning on a fence post, he started to teach us about the importance of having a definite purpose for our lives. He said "without a purpose, you will never know the direction you are going."
My mother and grandmother always seemed to follow up on what grandpa was teaching, even when we worked inside of the chicken house. They taught us many things, because our father was serving in the Navy and unable to be with us.
The teaching even continued as we lifted rocks out of the way of the plow that the horses were pulling.
The purpose of writing this book is to help boys to grow into men. Not everyone has a team of horses to follow, but perhaps this book will help.
