Same here. I have done quite a few things that would cause people's eyes to widen. I really wouldn't want my kids/grandkids to know about those things, so I would not write one.

If I did, it would be titled "What NOT to do in Life".

Same here, they'd swear it fiction, but you know, there are things you just can't make up.

How was that? Gripping?

I wouldn't write an autobiography. It would make everybody cry. If I do write a book, it will be my own personal dogma: Evil is preordained. You can't get out unless you become a better person. A better world awaits, and then a better one, and then an even better one....but you gotta get out of this one first.

And so forth. I would go on to explain the difference between meditation and thinking. Why so many people keep coming back to this same world. How to get out. Why other worlds don't want you. How God, our universal creator, is always testing us. How an event can be preordained minutes before it happens. Why being here is not punishment. Why evil is allowed. Why you allow it. And many more wonderful things, I have meditated upon.

If I wrote a book, it would not be sad at all. It would be about growing up Southern surrounded by a huge eccentric but loving family. There are bunches of crazy, funny, and unbelievable stories I could tell. If I wrote it, I could never come home again, so I will keep it all to myself.
