I ask myself, why am I writing this book? My truest answer is because I have always believed I had a book or books within me, and this is one of the deepest stories I have lived to tell. Therefore, I am thinking to myself, now is the time. I have procrastinated about writing this book. I would set goals to finish by certain dates and it was almost as if once I set a date, I simply stopped writing. Just, today I told myself if you do not write something regarding Never Transparent just forget it. So here I am at almost 8 pm in the evening writing because there is something within me that says I must finish this. So here we go. I am writing this book mostly for myself, yet every part of my being says that there is someone else out there who could benefit from it. As I take a good look at my life, although there has been heartbreak, like in the passing of my mother when I was 20 and the passing of my father when I was 24, I really have had a good life. I had my parent's physical presence long enough to gain some major life lessons from them
