BEAUTIFUL LESSONS LIFE THOUGHT ME

If  you will take the time to read these. I promise you'll come  away with an enlightened perspective. The subjects covered  affect us all, on a daily basis:
    
They're  written by Andy Rooney, a man who had the gift of saying so  much with so few words.



Andrew Aitken "Andy" Rooney (January 14, 1919 – November 4, 2011) was an American radio and television writer. He was best known for his weekly broadcast "A Few Minutes with Andy Rooney," a part of the CBS News program 60 Minutes from 1978 to 2011. His final regular appearance on 60 Minutes aired October 2, 2011. He died one month later, on November 4, 2011, at age 92.
He is a man with so much experience so you read more about him. He worked as a newspaper vendor in the army had many writings to his credit. For the main time lets feast on his knowledge.
