The only thing constant in life is change. In the journey through dynamic life, major changes and dislocations happened early as well as later in life. The events created by these tribulations were connected with people and places that shaped up future life and destiny. These events themselves were influenced by historical and scientific developments in society over time. When the dynamic life entered its last cycle, the balance sheet was loaded with dejections and regrets outweighing the successes and achievements. That was the time when life in transition stopped, life itself moved on. The book is a mix of a real-life story, historical connections and concoctions to make it a lively reading.
