A Special Night - A Lucky Child

The full moon in Eastern Africa during the 1960's war between Ethiopia and Eritrea meant a ceasefire. On October 19th 1965 there was a full moon, This great fortune was a blessing due to this being the time my mother went into labor prior to giving birth to me. Had it not been for this full moon on the night I was born, the horse and buggy my mother was transferred in was sure to have been raided by rebels. This begins the journey of my existence on earth and the luck that was bestowed on me to return to the US where I was given the chance of a healthy life and the opportunity to thrive!
