You’re writing your autobiography. What’s your opening sentence?
This is it….my life’s journey!
That would be the first sentence if ever I find myself writing about my life. I am never ambitious enough to write one though. Having almost four thousand posts in this blog and hundreds of posts in my four other blogs would be enough if the purpose would be to show the world how I am and what good memories are worth-keeping and angst that sometimes surfaces now and then. At times, I do feel insecure especially with my health, most of the time though I am tremendously happy.
Life is short, I agree but if you could leave something behind that would make someone reflect and smile, then you have accomplished something worthwhile.
I have a friend on Facebook who has just written his autobiography by answering guide questions. I don’t know where he got them. He said it is a pamana, a legacy of sort for his grandchildren. It is a self-published book.
Would you attempt writing your own?
I felt like my whole life was an open book. People “read”

me all the time. No need to read it again. If anyone wanted a refresher, much of it is written in blog posts, along with comments from dear friends.

You know I have – but through the blog – “A Knight’s Tale” category

We all have done it somehow Derrick – glimpses of what have been, writing about the present too. It is our legacy to the world. I’ve always have these thoughts, if I could touch a single soul out there, then I’m happy.

My first line would be;
‘Thanks for buying this book, I never expected anyone would want to read it’.
I don’t think I would write one, but in many ways, my blog is my autobiography as it covers every aspect of my life since I was born.
Best wishes, Pete.

Nice intro Pete. As I have said, our blogs speak for themselves. Maybe they are even more complete than writing an autobiography😘
