Description

Dear Malka and Levi, As I start this project, you are little children of five and seven. You are beautiful. Perfect in your enthusiasm, openness, unfettered love, vulnerability, engagement and shocking sense of self. Despite deriving from the same gene pool, you are unique individuals, special in your various attributes, and already life has delivered you deeply divergent experiences, which each of you have accepted and adopted in stride.I am forty two, and while I am certain I have much more to learn from life, I feel compelled to document what I believe I know today, with the simultaneous goal of helping you understand me and, potentially, helping you understand yourselves and the world around you.Why am I doing this now? Why am I compelled to spend my commute home or the occasional empty long plane ride writing a paragraph about my life and how I view the world? Clearly there is an element of ego involved - I feel like I've figured some things out and, in believing that you might find my insights valuable, I'm validating myself by definition. This is not a humble endeavor. But I think there is probably something darker driving me, a recognition of my own mortality - that approximately half of my life is already over - and the fear that if I were to die today I would leave you in the lurch not just physically and emotionally, but spiritually and intellectually. I wouldn't get a chance to teach you from my mistakes and insights. To, at the very least, put forward a few ideas that could help you form your own value system. To improve, even if slightly, your chances of achieving that which I wish for you above all else: happiness, love and peace.Please forgive me in advance for cliché and pedantic rhetoric. This book is predicated on the belief that I have discovered monumental insights, which of course is untrue. But beneath the postulating and self-affirmation, if you look closely you'll find something that is true: this is my journey, and it has worked for me. Ultimately, in asking you to read this book, I'm asking you to take your own journey. Actively. Engaging the world around you and reaching to discover your soul. In your own way.I love you both, and I will forever.Papa
