This fictional novel, book 5 of 5, the last book in the series, follows the life journey of Alejandro Sierra Jr. from the time he retires from the workforce, thinking he has enough money to retire, only to find out that enough is not enough. This book will involve another business venture to bring in a little more money for the household as he and his beloved walk through the senior/junior and senior/senior years of their lives. It will also show travel, continuing to do the Lord's work (God and Jesus). But above all, it is the most controversial book because it reveals what Alejandro thinks about religion and politics, and he believes that once a person reveals that, some, if not many, will find fault with his beliefs. Just remember that what the main character says or does is only one man's opinion, no more, no less. Your beliefs may also be valid.

The question in book 1 of 5 was: Is the life of a common person really common? We are all different with unique life journeys to travel. He believes that our lives on this earth are what we, as individuals, interpret and accept as truth, not what others tell us to believe. After we see or do something, we form our own conclusions about what life means, and this story reflects his view of the world, especially of love. Therefore, by this time you should be able to make up your own mind - is anyone really common?

All 5 books reflect Alejandro's growing up and coming of age in a rough barrio (neighborhood), experiencing love and sex for the first time, learning to live with the breakup, joining the U.S. Navy, serving in the Vietnam War, coming home, getting into an illegal business venture, going to college, getting married, retiring, making it through his junior and senior years, and finally passing away. As simple as that sounds, the story primarily focuses on his thoughts about the present, past, and future, as well as the actions and reactions he undertook to survive. If you pause and think about it for a moment, our lives are composed mainly of thoughts, with some actions and reactions.

Again, be advised that the protagonist (main character) sometimes repeats himself, as if to clarify what he previously said or thought, probably as a way to justify what he said or did earlier, or maybe because he cannot let go of a troubling event that won't leave his mind. Please note that repetition runs throughout the story.

This story mainly focuses on his romantic life with a woman throughout his journey, but in the end only with his wife. Sometimes this story is funny, but at other times somewhat distressing. Alejandro is opinionated, and his thoughts and beliefs are evident throughout his life, whether right or wrong. Why not? It's his story. Besides, all his actions, reactions, perceptions, feelings, and thoughts are constantly shaping his character. Finally, he would like to note that he will also share some topics that most other writers will never write or discuss. All is revealed through the eyes of this old minority Vietnam veteran before his passing at the VA hospital. Again, all is reflected in the 5 books in the series.

Nevertheless, be advised that the underlying theme of this story is sexual (Adult) in nature, even though other realizations of life are discussed, such as Learning, Joy, Sadness, Pain, Travel, War (Vietnam), Love, Religion (Christianity), Schooling (College), Photography, IT Management, and Death. Still, sex is the driver, the essence of life, with the understanding that mind rules over matter.
