Happy Birthday Ernie Hemingway

Ernest Hemingway saw life as a game and one that he was always losing. He lived dangerously to protech his own dignity but this was brave of him but also dangerous.

He tried to prove his courage through fishing for marlin off coast of Cuba, hunting lions in Kenya, and continously looking for the one thing that would push his bravery. He lived with an impulse of suicide and at 62 years old that impulse overcame his will to live. His father had also died via suicide when Ernest was only a young boy.

Hemingway left behind for all of us to enjoy wonderful treasures to read and share. Novels such as The Sun Also Rises, A Farewell to Arms, To Have and Have not. Born into this world Ernest Miller Hemingway July 21, 1899 he fought a battle to live his mark on the world. He was an American author and journalist who influenced many different parts of society from literature. Most of his work would come between the 1920's and 1950s. From his early 30s to early 60s he was conquering his own fear and sharing his talent of fiction with all. In the end he left the world where he would be remembered in pain, broke and wishing for more.

Happy Birthday Mr. Hemingway, thank you for your talent and sharing it with the world.
