music, thoughts, books, dreams, more

Just my world of dreams, music and thoughts. Author of two books, one a novel of Love stories set in Framingham, Mass, Secrets of the Heart the 2nd book an autobiography of growing up in Framingham, Mass. Small Town America, Framingham My generation was the first teenage generation, that was when the word was coined. Ours was the generation that started cruising through town and to the drive in theater and drive in restaurant. In our area, Ernie Kampersal,from Holliston, drove his bucking car through town, picking up girls. It rose in the air, like a stallion! We went to the soda shops and played the juke boxes. It was a different town, a different time, and it belonged to us!

Recently I had an awakening, that the subject we fail to teach in school is self awareness.  I  feel strongly that it would guide our nation to a better future.  The 4 Noble Truths of  the philosophy ofBuddhism as a starter in elementary school, would open so many to the world we live in.  Then today I ran across this book review in the Wall Street Journal, and it convinced me that our failure to see beyond the Western world in education leaves us with a major shortfall in learning.   If you do nothing but read this book review, you will have gained in tremendous knowledge of what we have to do to make our world a better place.
