Elva and I met Ted Robinson, author of “Water in My Veins” at our writers’ group. Later I read his autobiography which is a series of true short stories from his life that teach life lessons.
Ted’s father died when Ted was a small boy. His grandfather, who was deaf, took responsibility for the family and became the father Ted didn’t have. His grandfather had lost his own wife and soul mate. He told Ted, “GIVIN’ BEATS GETTIN’ EVERY TIME”. Everyone who aspires to become a soul mate can learn from his story. By giving up his life to save the family he really saved his own life.
