This letter is an attempt to pass along my thoughts, prayers, wisdom, experience, and advice to you.  It is tough to be a successful man in today’s world. It is important that you learn as many life lessons as you can while still young. My hope is that this letter will help inspire you to develop into the man that God designed you to become. Nothing more, nothing less. I did not understand the world when I was young. I don’t want you to face a similar situation. It is a tough place to start.

I was confused as a young man

When I was a young man there were a lot of things about God, people, and the world in which we live that I did not understand, at all.  Lord knows I have made a million mistakes along the way. There is a lot that I still need to learn. I have sought wisdom from many different sources, and spent many years trying to “figure out what life was all about”.  I am convinced that you can learn something from everyone. This letter summarizes what I have discovered, so far. Hopefully, you find it useful.

This is a letter, not a book

The text that is contained within this letter is not in any particular order and placed in any particular format.  Each post was created one at a time. It is not structured like a book. Some writing will be very clear and concise, while other items may be somewhat obtuse.  I apologize if you do not understand everything that I am trying to convey to you, although some items are intended to make you think about things and come to your own conclusion.  Without further delay, here we go…..

This is a letter, not a book!

I am Doug Keating and this is my letter to sons.
