    The stories in this collection are dedicated to my grandchildren, the eager listeners who encouraged me, again and again, to "tell me a story." I hope that hidden in the stories are numerous family values: kindness, appreciation and care for one another, enjoyment of life, curiosity, education, adventure, humor... These stories are part of my memoirs - preserving family events and giving something of myself, and my love, to my children and grandchildren...and you.

    Thank you my readers for your willingness to be inspired. We never know where our answers might lie. Our most important insights may come from a sentence in a book. I hope this is true for you.Creating this book is the answer to a dream for me. I have wanted to be a writer since I was thirteen, but in those early days I had nothing to say. After I wrote THE COURAGE TO GRIEVE and then YOU DON'T HAVE TO SUFFER, I thought I was done writing books.Still I never stopped wanting to inspire others with ideas about living well. It has always disturbed me that there is no training to be a human being, no lessons in coping with trauma, illness, loss and tragedy. Ours is a world filled with people learning in hit or miss ways how to confront the inevitable troubles and sorrows in life or how to have satisfying lives and successful relationships.Unfortunately there is also no training for the biggest jobs most of us take on - like being a parent or a spouse. It's startling that we have so little assistance or support for dealing with the things that matter most to us in life. Seeing that we really don't have any ';curriculum' other than our own trial and error ways for coping with our emotional lives led me to write all of my books and now these articles.Beginning my newsletter project, I thought or hoped to write maybe fifteen articles at most. Instead I have found an endless stream of inspiration, the sharing of which has been one of the greatest joys in my life. This book came as a surprise to me. My hope is that it is valuable for you. I am living Goethe's words: ';Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it.' May those words encourage you too in whatever are your endeavors.

What did everyone do just before getting into bed? How many church services did Bach oversee each week? What happened at the organ duel in Dresden? Why did Bach tell his cousin not to send him any more free wine? What was Bach's actual job description in Leipzig? How often did people do the laundry?The Little Bach Book is filled with fascinating and sometimes unexpected answers to these and many other questions.
