Hair dirty and matted, homeless and struggling. He was a big dude. He came up to me and i was instantly on my guard. And he said where are you going and he said i am going to california and he said how much food do you have. I thought he wanted to rob me. He wanted me to open up my bag and i didnt know what was going to happen but i was jumpy about it. I said i have a little cheese. He was carrying a lunch box and said i lib in a broken down car and he said i walk out to the coal mine to see if anyone is sick and they can hire me.

He would never get a president ial medal of honor which i thk he actually deserve frankly for what he did for his company but the heroism didnt mean the political establishment would. So you write this is just like leadership lessons and in the book i discovered it all comes down to what you mean by happiness up and down those phases nothing is forever not even life itself i reflect and hearing that back i hear him thinking about where his life is taking them end there is some regrets that he wouldnt ever get to spend the sunset years in the place that he loved far away from the United States in croatia where he spent a lot of time with his family and the people he loved.
