Joseph Baldi Acosta My Life in Metaphor

Annotation

Dear Reader:Welcome to My Life in Metaphor, one mans life experiences and views of life, death, and everything in between. My writing reflects growing up a part of two distinct, rich cultures;training as a scientist and public health professional; work and residence in three foreign countries Brazil, Jordan and Ecuador; a love of nature; and,great respect for our country, but concern about a decline in our nations values the growing hostility and intolerance, technology as a substitute for direct human contact, and excessive violence. I hope you will enjoy my poetry, find it interesting and thought-provoking. Sincerely,Joseph Baldi Acosta
