A Life of Gratitude: An Autobiography - Paperback

by Kazuyoshi Ikeno (Author)

Since I reached 70 years old, I have felt that I should leave some kind of record of my own history. This is because I am convinced that the record of the joys, sorrows, and happiness I shared on earth with my most beloved and respected Rev. and Mrs. Moon will be an irreplaceable treasure in the distant future. They are as precious as God to me, and I call them True Parents; in my faith, they are the Messiah.

My life has been a journey of searching for God and meeting True Parents and the Messiah. It was also a journey to find my true self. In writing this autobiography, I would like to thank God for guiding my spiritual growth in a way that I could not see, and I would like to apologize for the worries I have caused. I would also like to express my deepest gratitude to True Parents, who knew me from before I was born, as well as God, and who have guided me with their fervent prayers behind my back, sometimes worrying that I was walking on too dangerous a path.
