Book Cover & Preview Text
CHAPTER ONE: THE BOOK OF HAD HAD, is an ancient three letter word whose importance has gone Un-acknowledged for far too long. Ages have gone by since the very first had was initiated, “Had to Create Life.” From that point on, Life has been an endless chain of “Had”. Our very lives begin with Had. “Had to breathe” and end with “Had to stop breathing?” Between our first breath and our last breath there are Hads, Haves, and Should. Mankind is our Hads. Every Had created throughout history is a link to the Have we experience today. Psychologists say,” humans learn by repetition and emotional involvement” but we keep repeating the lessons and have learned very little. We as a mass still allow the one individual with a warped sense of negative purpose to control the way we interact with each other. We live in the he, she, it, they, you and I should way. The true Way, is living in “The Truth and the Light” with purpose and positive respect for one another. Not as lemmings, but as individuals in an intricate tapestry of unique spiritual beings. As residents of Planet Earth, living a positive life is our task. The Had is the way we track the existence of all who were. The more famous and provocative the person, the more memorable the HADS, as well as the Should and the Have. We are all leaders of ourselves, one way or the other. Have is a Choice! We all have a friend we consider a peer Whose goal hasn’t varied from year to year Determination is strong in these people we’ve met Their life is controlled by the Goals that they’ve set We watch them grow while pursuing their end Without a doubt they’ll succeed, this dear friend To know where we are going and not go astray Is hard to accomplish for many today The choice to have is a goal we must set In order to gauge how life’s fulfillment is being met Best Wishes apply as we watch them progress For fulfillment in Life is what they will possess Life is today for we never know, will tomorrow come as a Blessing or come as a Blow? Positive motion embraces life’s flow, a negative notion in habits we know. Through love, Givers Gain without people lose, how can we progress in helping one chose.

About the Book
This twenty-eight year journey toward clarity and integrity has, in a nutshell, exposed simple windows of human choice. From choice comes humanity or the lack thereof. God provided the planet, and he often reminds us that we are mere tenants. We, as the evolved human occupants, create the culture through free will. I believe that, over the past twenty-eight years, our choices have been more clearly exposed and defined than ever before. The communication age has given us a real-time, up-front view to clearly experience each lesson. If clarity is what you seek, the windows presented here will be of great value.
Periodically, we are ushered back to the basics, when a reset of our human barometer, which measures our collective value to our planet and ourselves, is needed. We must not lose our true spiritual and compassionate humanity to the negative, debilitating acts of some. “Think, and ‘should’ no more” is the ultimate theme throughout this journey.
Finding a path which allows us to “Step Out Of The Shoulds” is, in itself, worthy of the journey.
Our lives begin with “had to breathe” and end with “had to stop breathing.” Had, have, and should are the metaphoric brick and mortar of our physical lives, between our first and last breath. As I have progressed in life, it became an apparent fact that “shoulds don’t count.”
