Searching for Serenity in My Crazy Life (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781733377522)

Everyone has a story to tell; Elly Stevens has a "lifetime" of stories to tell.

Journey down memory lane as Elly shares 70 years of life with her family and friends. Travel with her through every significant stage of her life from early childhood, growing up in an ethnic neighborhood, her first kiss, her marriage, the birth of her son, the trials and tribulations of motherhood while balancing a challenging career at Kodak, learning how to face and embrace retirement, the delight of a granddaughter, the passing of friends and family members, and the beginning of new "life" at age 70. You become part of her life as you share in her intimate moments. This recollection of life is a touching and amusing series of stories that we all can relate to, no matter where we grew up, or no matter where our life has taken us.

Elly's journey will lead you to recall your own life's metamorphosis. You may even laugh or cry at some of the experiences in the most typical, daily slices of life that we have all encountered.

What started out as a written record of her most notable life moments to leave for her granddaughter has turned into a remarkable and insightful biographical story that may make you want to write one yourself. Life is a constant and never-ending passage of events in time, treasured for generations. Telling one's personal stories makes one live forever.

Searching for Serenity in My Crazy Life. Fun, fascinating, and memory provoking. Growing up doesn't mean growing old. Growing up is a life story.
