This is the story of Anny. Anny's life is presented as a past-life memory of the author. I have lived these memories. Whether they exist as conscious memory, or subconscious, makes no difference to me. They are just as real as the experiences I record in my memory today. They are presented here for your reading, reflection, and enjoyment. We are all made from the sum total of our past-life experiences. This story is only one of the many lives I, like you, have lived. I hope you enjoy meeting Anny, for she and I have been together again several months while this story was being prepared. I have very much enjoyed retracing Anny's life, for, in many ways, I am Anny.
