Before I die, I want to hear a fly buzz. (Please look up Emily Dickinson for the reference). Seriously folks before I die I want to have my PHD in Psychology and have published at least four books, my poetry, my autobiography, a historical biography about my great-grandmother and a historical biography about my grandfather (both very interesting and influential people in my life). I at least can say though that I am published already, I have a poem in the National Archives in DC, I was published in my local paper and I was recently published in a book of poetry for the State of Michigan's Community Mental Health.
Remember our dreams are only what we make them, so make them good ones.
