Waves of Life (ePub)

Don Mueller was born in 1946 and grew up in suburban Detroit, Michigan. He graduated from Redford Township High School and went on to earn degrees from Albion College and, after being drafted and serving in Viet Nam, Michigan State University. Being unable to find an advertising opportunity in the Midwest, Don headed to Hawaii, found his first job, and eventually became a partner in the firm of Peck, Sims, Mueller, which became one of the most successful advertising agencies in Hawaii. Don had been a college swimmer, took up running for conditioning and after moving to Hawaii added cycling. He hung out and trained with a cadre of close friends who pushed each other and competed regularly. In his 40s, at the zenith of his competitive life, Don was a top triathlete for his age group in North America. After some setbacks, Don moved to California where, for a number of years, he owned a high-end audio and television installation business. Early in 2021, Don learned from partners that a long-delayed business opportunity in Hawaii might finally materialize. In June 2021 Don returned to Honolulu and lived on Waikiki Beach overlooking the ocean he loved. For a decade or more Don had been in declining health. During his last months, he wrote most of the 100 poems in this collection reflecting on his life. Until the very end, Don possessed a positive spirit and remained thankful for the life he had lived. Don's life ended and he began his next journey in January 2022.
