He has several other books forthcoming, including one on the ethics of happiness and another on the philosophy and psychology of lying.

Send Me My Eve is a celebration of love and life. I learned early in life that the two most important decisions we make are what professional path we need to take so that we can be of service and value to our fellow humans, and to live life to its fullest. What is equally important is our decision in choosing the best spouse, who should be a friend, confidante, lover, inspiration, and source of encouragement for the rest of our life. Only God, who has planned our lives and given us our purpose, can help us when we are messing up these decisions. This book highlights one of these challenges; it recreates the road I took to find my spouse.I was fifteen when my first love captured my heart. Love, I found out, was too complex an emotion to limit to mere verbal expressions. I began to feel the need to write, so that my deeper feeling for the one I loved could be understood. My first love is now my wife of several decades.This book is fun and offers inspiration despite its dramatic surprises. Life can inspire us if we learn to reflect without fear and regret. Reflections can heal us, and set us free from mental and emotional prisons. Reflections can make us wiser and stronger to face the future. Join me as I reflect. I made it in the end, and so can you.About the Author: Raised in Beterverwagting, Guyana, Kwesi Oginga is a pastor and lives in Silver Spring, Maryland. Ten years after meeting Eve, they married.Publisher's website: www.SBPRA.com/KwesiOginga
