He was simultaneously down to earth and thoughtful - a most intriguing blend. This shines through in his writing. This is the first book written by Jan that I've read, and I must admit I have found it mesmerizing. His writing style captures the reader's attention and draws him into a deep analysis of life's journey. Anybody who reads this wonderful book can be assured of one thing - you'll think deeply about the meaning of life. I highly recommend this book for anyone who is on a quest to understand his purpose.
