This journey will focus on life and its various rhythms. Each of us has been dealt an entirely unique hand, and we must learn to be content with the hand we have been dealt while still working to be the best version of ourselves.
When life throws us curveballs, we may find ourselves unable to see a route forward. We must anticipate in both driving and life. The future is like a road we’re traveling down, and what we do from here on out will determine our future.
The trouble is that life isn’t always fair, and we can’t always expect a smooth, stress-free journey. What do we do if things don’t go according to plan? How do we break free from the muck and dirt that is dragging us down?
The unusual life of ordinary man John Albert Buchness is recounted in Diary of a Baby Boomer. In this memoir, Buchness traces his life’s journey from childhood to adulthood through a number of locales he has called home. His interesting story is full of adventure, romance, heartbreak, partying, art, and music as he lives between the United States and Europe. Buchness concludes with a sequence of poems based on his life’s thoughts, providing an incisive look at life and what we might make of it.
