While farm life was very demanding, there were many intrinsic values that I acquired over the years that I've tried to follow in my journey through life. First, I developed a love of nature, which meant a close relationship with God. So, while it might appear that no one else is around, I am never alone, since God is always by my side, acting as my strength and shield, even in my darkest hours! I also learned about honesty and integrity, that the truth will always set you free, to think before I speak, while extending a helping hand to those in need. (Sad to say, this is not true of many nowadays, as any values and sense of morality they possess has gone out the window with the bathwater!) At the same time, we have fragmented families plus a divided citizenry that has lost its way. Anyway, this book (Why Do I Think the Way That I Think?) is my attempt to redirect their feet to get back on the straight and narrow path that will lead them homeward.
