About the Author
My main inspiration for writing came from my college professors. During this time, I wrote mostly short poems and stories and found ways to express my thoughts and feelings through them. The professors I had enjoyed my work and encouraged me to write more but I could not, because my major was in more of a technical field totally opposite from writing. Over the years I have written many poems for friends and loved ones but I never had it in my mind to publish anything until recently.
I was going through a rather difficult time in my life and I had one friend who would call me and always cheer me up while I was feeling alone and down. This act of kindness inspired me to write this book. I found a happy thought and like it says in peter pan, you find one happy thought and you can fly. This happy thought dealt with mostly sharing and not giving up on your dreams. I wanted to share these thoughts and feelings with everyone I could and that became my own personal dream.
