DANAS JE 110-eti ROĐENDAN MAJKE OD 15-tero DJECE IVE BOBAN, GABRIĆ

MY MOST MERRY CHRISTMAS 2022 = MOJ NAJVESELIJI BOŽIĆ 2022

 How this book came about:
“A COLLECTION OF LIFE STORIES”.

For my birthday in August 2021, my daughter-in-law Robin, my son Stjepan’s wife, enrolled me in a publishing company that exclusively deals with writing books of life stories. She knew that I like to write stories from the past. I gladly agreed; but the rules were that every Monday for a year, which is 52 Mondays, that company would send me the title of what I would need to write. If I skip just one Monday, I’ve broken the rules and the company might take me off my life story writing list. The best and most interesting stories will be printed by that publishing company, of course for their interest because it is their job and purpose to earn as much money as possible.

As much as I was passionately interested in writing my life stories, I was even more interested from Monday to Monday in finding out what question the company would send me next Monday. I, too, followed the company rules frantically for all 52 weeks. The last question of my 52 writing was, “How did you and mom meet?” This is the last question and it is in this book on page 425. There are several writings in the Croatian language as well. As I had 52 different questions, I tried to put one appropriate picture of my life stories in each question. There are about 50 pictures, even duplicates, depending on the story.

As my daughter-in-law Robin enrolled me in that company, officially I had to do everything through her, so I was not directly connected with the “STORY WORTH” publishing house. My last writing was at the end of August 2022. Truth be told, I asked my daughter-in-law Robin once or twice if she knew anything about whether or not the book of my life stories would be printed or not. She replied that she didn’t know anything about it yet.

Yesterday, Sunday, Christmas, December 25, 2022, we were with son Stjepan and daughter-in-law Robin, son Rafael and daughter-in-law Sarah and my two grandsons Cash/David and Tristan/John. Before the meal when the gifts were distributed,Robin gave me the book: “COLLECTION OF LIFE STORIES” written by Milan Boban. I must admit that I was very happy and even more moved by joy, especially since my life stories are very interesting and full of inspiration and that they decided to print all my stories accompanied by pictures. We send you only one book. The price of the book is 90 dollars, and it will be 60 dollars for you and for all those you recommend to us.

My wife Annie and I decided to order 10 books for our children and a few friends. If anyone wants to order this book for their curiosity and keepsake, it should all go through my daughter in law Robin. Those interested can contact me directly, and I will pass everything on to Robin.

I wish everyone a Happy New Year 2023.
Mile Boban.

Kako je došlo do ove knjige:

 “ZBIRKA ŽIVOTNIH PRIČA”.

Moja nevjesta Robin, mog sina Stjepana supruga za moj rođenda u kolovozu 2021 upisala me je u jedno izdavačko poduzeće koje se isključivo bavi pisanjem knjiga životnih priča. Ona je znala da ja volim pisati dogodovštine iz prošlosti. Ja sam rado pristao; ali pravila su bila da će meni to poduzeće svakog ponedjeljka za godinu dana, što je 52 ponedjeljka poslati naslov šta ću ja trebati pisati. Ako preskočim samo jedan ponedjeljak, prekršio sam pravila i poduzeće bi me moglo skinuti s liste pisanja mojih životnih priča. Najbolje i najzanimljivije priče to izdavačko poduzeće će tiskati, naravno za njihov interest jer im je to zanat i svrha da zarade što više novca.

Koliko god sam bio vruće zainteresiran pisati moje životne priče, još sam bio više zainteresiran od ponedjeljka do ponedjeljka saznati koje će mi pitanje poduzeće poslati idućeg ponedjeljka. I ja sam se grčevito držao pravila poduzeća za svih 52 tjedna. Zadnje pitanje mojeg 52 pisanja je bilo: “Kako si se ti i mama upoznali?” Ovo je zadnje pitanje i nalazi se u ovoj knjizi na strani 425. Ima nekoliko opisa i na hrvatskom jeziku. Kako sam ja imao 52 različita pitanja, nastojao sam u svako pitanje staviti jednu prikladnu sliku tih mojih životnih priča. Imao slika oko 50 pa čak i u duplikatu, zavisi od priče.

Kako je moja nevjesta Robin mene u to poduzeće upisala, službeno sam ja morao sve preko nje, tako da ja nisam bio direktno povezan sa izdavačkom kućom “STORY WORTH”. Moj zadnji opis je bio koncem kolovoza 2022. Istini za volju ja sam jednom ili dva puta upitao nevjestu Robin da li ona išta zna da li će ili ne knjiga mojih životnih priča biti tiskana ili ne. Ona mi je odgovorila da još ništa o tome ne zna.

Jučer, nedjelja, Božić 25 prosinca 2022 smo bilo kod sina Stjepana i nevjeste Robin, sin Rafael i nevjesta Sarah i moja dva unuka Cash/David i Tristan/John. Prije jela kada su se pokloni dijelili, nevjesta Robin mi dade tu knjigu: “ZBIRKA ŽIVOTNIH PRIČA – Koju je napisao Milan Boban”. Moram priznati da sam bio vrlo veseo a još više ganut od veselja, tim više da su moje životne priče vrlo interesantne i pune nadahnuća te da su odlučili tiskati sve moje priče popraćene sa slikama. Mi vam šaljemo samo jednu knjigu. Cijena knjige je 90 dolara a za vas će biti 60 dolara i za sve one koje nam vi preporučite.

Supruga Annie i ja smo odlučili naročiti 10 knjiga za našu djecu i nekoliko prijatelja. Ako netko želi naručiti ovu knjigu za svoju znatiželju i uspomenu, sve treba ići preko moje nevjeste Robin. Zainteresirani se mogu izravno meni javiti, te ću ja sve prenijeti nevjesti Robin.

Svima želim Sretnu Novu 2023. Godinu.
Mile Boban.
