by Richard Edmund Taesch (Author)
So just what does the title of this little book mean? Well, like Old Pops (Louis Armstrong) who was said to have responded to a king when asked what is jazz, "If you hasta' ask, you ain't never gonna know." But just as a hint, if you do read "Summer's Memory," it should become apparent that questions have been the highlights of Richard's life stories. And I continue to ask: Why is that? As to where mankind is headed, when is enough - enough?
THE SEASONS OF A MUSIC TEACHER
These short fragments taken from my stories and little vignettes are grouped into the seasons of my life. Richard found himself inspired to share - in a single volume - reminders of the little journeys - what he's learned from them, what questions remain from them, and about how even failing at business (or anything else) might not be so bad after all. A red badge of courage, perhaps? Nope! Just a little encouragement to those who might still believe that losing can be winning, and that the givers - and the butterflies - must always celebrate life no matter. And yes, the book cover main title differs slightly from that which appears within. Why is that?
