Life IS a participation sport and this book is filled with true life stories. I've had innumerable amazing, funny, and unexplainable experiences. I have been protected on this journey more times than I can count. These stories are about love and loss, forgiveness, faith, hope, serendipity, Divine guidance and listening, and just plain silliness. Another great story is my tribute to John Denver, in Monterey.We are born into these physical bodies to attend earth school and some classes are filled with uncertainty, while others are exuberant. We spend time trying to find out who we are and where we belong. We make plans and at the same time, life just happens. We are all where we are supposed to be, when we get there. We need to live each day purposefully. Love and be kind to yourself and love and be kind to humanity, because we're all we have, for now. We need to live, love and laugh equally. Your smile is like peanut butter...you have to spread it around!Life is like Disneyland in the days of designated ride coupons, with "e;A"e; being the least scary. But I suggest you take the "e;E"e; coupon ride! So, get comfy and ride along with me.

The book was written by way of my memories of events that happened in my life and up to the time I met David Brooks.

Thinking of his evening in Crumbald Centre, Slagfid smiled to himself as he fished his keys from his belt. A sound caught his ears before the keys reached the door. He listened, nothing. The dwarf stood still. The lock and key swayed gently above his head in the night breeze. His thoughts returned to the tattered man at the tavern. Again, a noise, it came from behind the cabin. Slagfid bent down and tossed his keys through the gate into the forge porch. He could pick his own locks later. Besides, he had another set secured in a case hidden at the Musty Mule. He gripped his Warhammer and slid into the shadows. He moved quietly around to the back of the cabin. He listened. He moved toward his woodpile and surveyed the grounds in the starlight. His ancestral, subterranean eye site tried to compensate to bring the blurred shadows into focus, but the starlight was too bright. The crack of a twig, and another footfall, were followed by a guttural sound. Suddenly, the air was full of the smells of filth and sweat and...goblins. Goblins? Slagfid felt a thud on the back of his head and the starlit sky vanished.

Sometimes we all need an encouraging word to help us move forward from a difficult situation or to even help us with our own thoughts of self-doubt and insecurity. An encouraging word can be shared with everyone regardless of their age, gender, color, background, or religious beliefs.Some of these poems stemmed from my own feelings and were planted in my soul from listening to my family and my friends throughout the years. I hope these poems will encourage someone to know that they are not alone with their struggles. I want everyone to know that we can be on different stages of life, and still deal with some of the same emotions that causes us to have feelings of self-doubt, insecurity, and fear. I am grateful that God speaks to me through the words of the Holy Bible and through my family. I faithfully believe that an encouraging word can be planted to spread healing. I also wholeheartedly believe that an encouraging word can give hope to others when they are feeling down and may not have the strength to encourage themselves. Just knowing that someone cares enough to speak a positive word in my life, helped me to feel stronger, and motivated me to share poems of inspiration to speak encouraging words to others.
