Intro
It is Thursday... June 27, 2024... at 12:40 pm
I am alive.
When I wrote the book A collection of our thoughts... I did not know what I wanted to write about.
This is different.
...
The book A collection of my thoughts is already finished.
This introduction is being written after the conclusion.
The intention of this book is to finish my past.
Done.
...
This was for me.
This is reference material for me.
I am sharing this content with you because I know that you can learn from my experience.
You are welcome.
...
That is all I have for now.
Enjoy.
