About This Book
This melange of short stories, articles, essays, and anecdotes is not about blood and guts. Nor is it about mayhem, bullets, and knives, or wrecking autos. These stories are about family values, family love, family pets, wisdom, fun, family help, and the presence of a ‘god’ in our lives. These stories are not meant to excite, scare, or awe. For the most part, they are for the pure pleasure of the soulâ€â€the stimulation of understanding and feelings for all life on Earth. They are the successes of those who have gone before us and left their guidelines and patterns behind for us to follow. They are small stories about small issues that, when woven together, compound our lives into the essence of existing in a world of beauty and grace, a world of love and caringâ€â€but only if we are willing to embrace it and accept it as our human heritage.
