Just Ordered more of THE STORY OF LOVE
5/3/2020
Hello, Everyone - on my short list!
I have no more than 20% of my previous lists
on my current email list (or lists) -
due to losing most of previous members
when I changed operating systems last year from Windows XP to
Windows 10. When I did that, I lost previous address lists -
and have only been able to recover some of that from
receiving emails and adding senders to a current email list.
But that is why I call my current list a "short list." It is much
shorter than my previous lists.
Be that as it may, you lucky ones (or unlucky ones!) who
have sent me something since my last demise,
let me say that I am excited about being able to order
30 more issues of my DVD program I call THE STORY OF LOVE.
Previously, I ordered nearly 20 of that album - and
should receive that order on May 8th.
On May 9th (or soon after) I will mail my first copies
to the kids of Nancy and I - and to the kids of our kids.
That will be a beginning.
But the second mailing (or handout) will go to siblings
and other relatives and friends - and can include you
if you want a copy.
I am excited about this offering because
I am fully aware of how much we have put into it.
By "we," I mean a team that came together in Atlanta, Ga -
where I lived from 1981-2001 - to compile an album of
songs and commentary about life I called MASTER OF YOUR OWN FATE.
"We" met when we could when not working to add to a
general music and commentary program. We put so much into it;
and that is partly why I am so excited about finally being able to share it.
Consider it "long time in the making."
In 2003 and 2004, I put together a similar DVD production
I called THE MASTERY SERIES (4 volumes), which was a dubbing of
MASTER OF YOUR OWN FATE to my prancing naturally
in some woods and "bad lands" of Wyoming and Colorado.
I really like that effort, but I suspect many will not like it
because of a naked man wandering here and there.
So in 2014, I decided I better produce something a little less
challenging, so to speak, and put together a 3 DVD album
I call THE STORY OF LOVE which amounts to the earlier
THE MASTERY SERIES dubbed onto a pictorial from
2009-2014 of family friends (which may include some of you).
There is some nudity in that one, but I kept most of it to a
3rd volume, allowing people who care about that sort of thing
to watch Volumes 1 & 2 first - and then proceed to a
Volume 3 only if Volumes 1 & 2 were found to be without appeal.
Hey, I am trying to please all, but Y'all know how hard that is.
Right?
Anyway, though most of you are not a kid of Nancy or I -
or a kid of a kid, if all goes as planned now,
expect your copy of THE STORY OF LOVE - which will include
a description of the program to "warn" you of contents.
Just because I am exited about it does not mean anyone else
will share that excitement - and that is how it should be.
Consider our program to be a "gift" of a team in Georgia
who put it all together so long ago. OK?
Now, having said that, I repeat you can either order a copy
(by Amazon.com) or be given a copy
as Nancy and I can afford to give it.
As author, I can order copies for only $10 an album
whereas the general public has to pay $18 - to cover production costs.
Be our guests, then, get a copy free from us - or
order one yourself. Just keep in mind that all of it
is based on my general view of life that Life is Sacred
as it is - and because of that - has no need for redemption.
You do not have to share that belief to order a copy,
but simply be aware that is what you will be getting.
So sorry about this pandemic. Having had a copy of
THE STORY OF LOVE has helped me to be sidetracked,
so to speak, but whatever you need to "sidetrack" yourself,
get after it. OK? I also have a copy of the earlier
THE MASTERY SERIES, but have not yet watched that one
since completing it in 2004. I know I will "fault myself" for
this or that, when I do watch it, but I know what went into it.
So I will likely "forgive" myself for any "misdeeds" I may
have done. It is the BIG PICTURE that counts in the end.
I try to keep that in mind - and I hope you do too.
As Nancy would say, LOVE TO ALL!
Gently,
Francis William Bessler &
wife, Nancy Shaw
