This is my first book since Life of a Roadie, the Gypsy in Me. It's more of a philosophical reflection on all my experiences, including the experience of writing my first book.

I have always thought myself a philosopher, and many of my friends have called me a thinker. Not a stinker, but a thinker.

In interviews, whether on the radio or on television, when the host would ask me, "Ronnie, why did you write your first book?" My answer always is that if I could just save the life of one person reading my book, then I have done my job.

It's more of an expression, but my mantra has been, "Never give up, never give up, never give up!" I have also said my first book has a bit of the original Rocky movie vibe, and woven throughout the book is the flavor of the Jimmy Stewart movie It's a Wonderful Life.

It bothers me when I hear that someone has committed suicide, and my first thought is, if only they could have read my first book! Now, here is my second book. Enjoy the read.

As I said, reading the first book is recommended before going on this adventure where, like a lighthouse guiding ships on the mighty ocean, philosophy is lighting the way.

Enjoy the sequel.
