Aphorisms, Adages & Advice for the Children I Never Had

Wisdom in Time-Tested Sayings from a Man Who Has Been There

By: Len Tomaka

To soon old, too late smart. Over the course of my life, I have happened upon sayings that apply to specific situations in our lives. Actually, they relate powerful lessons. Over time, I jotted down many of these real-world insights and also began to compile a list of my personal experiences that I expected to pass along to my children. But I was married for thirteen years then divorced. We were not blessed with children. So I passed these sayings along to pipe fitter apprentices who worked with me, and the lessons were received very well. Now I wish to share them with a larger audience, to the children and grandchildren I never had. To the parents who may read this, I acknowledge that my list refers to many situations that you might already be familiar with, but some of them may have slipped through the cracks in your advice to your children. Who can benefit from reading them? Anyone of any age actually can draw knowledge from thesewhether one is working, playing, or attending the school of hard knocks.

Comebacks, Wisecracks, and Life Lessons for Bashful People

By: Len Tomaka

Len Tomaka shares the best comebacks, wisecracks, and retorts that he's learned over the years in this book that shares life lessons while helping introverts engage with others. When a friend doesn't realize he's in a bad situation, you can say, "And how is that working out for you?" If someone you know gets involved with something that you think is a bad idea, all you need to say is, "Yea, well good luck with that." When someone is upset over a lost companion, it's the perfect time to tell them, "Don't be sad because it's over--be glad it happened." If someone you know is fixated on revenge, tell them, "Living well is the best revenge." When a friend is excitedly jumping into a goal they always wanted to accomplish but they haven't considered all the ramifications, say, "Be careful what you wish for." Get quick-witted responses to use in almost any situation with this fun book filled with humorous comments and insights on life.
