An autobiography that isn't!: Not my life story, but stories in my life

Autobiographies of famous persons may be read by many, but those of ordinary persons find few readers, if any! Then, why did I think of writing my life stories? The reason is that I do think younger people can learn from the life experiences of even the ordinary people of older generation. However, most people are not interested in the "autobiographies" of ordinary people which are most likely to be boring! That is why I decided to present my experiences in a more interesting way and not chronological narration of my life. So, this is not an autobiography in a classical sense, but a story book, a collection of interesting anecdotes woven around what defines me as a person and how that person has changed over 70 odd years of my life so far. I hope my stories will hold up some lesson or the other that I have tried to highlight and that would be useful for the younger generation. This world has a tremendous variety and one can possibly experience only a small part of it in one life time. I am contented that I have sampled life to a fair degree and it serves the purpose of my coming into this world in this life reasonably well. There is no point in wishing and striving till your last breath for what you haven't experienced and thus remaining unhappy and thirsty forever because then there will be no end to that! I have not named any names including mine as author! It will help protect reputations without unnecessarily ruffling any feathers. This book is organized in different chapters with each centered on one particular aspect of my life, personality or a life principle. The focus is not on me but rather on telling through real stories - some sweet, some bitter - how one may change through life's experiences and learn.
