So this tug of war between wife and husband begins regarding what they both need and want. But what is wrong with having BOTH? You never have just steak. You never have just vegetables. There always a combination or two types of food that go into your breakfast, lunch, or dinner. In fact, we often get in trouble when we only snack on foods that we just love without eating a variety. A person can eat fruits and vegetables all day, but again, there is a combination of fruit and vegetables. What couples need to do to improve their relationships is compromise. Both partners must give each other what they need. And yes, I am old-fashioned in my belief that the man must give to his wife first. If he gives EXACTLY what she desires, then she must give back EXACTLY what he wants.

Drawing on his experiences from two tours in Vietnam, Brice H. Barnes has compiled a remarkable assortment of vignettes or very short stories, ranging all the way from the joys of getting gifts from the "church ladies" to helping to steal a peanut mill! With emphasis on the value of teamwork, these stories detail the finding of the largest weapons and arms cache in the entire war to committing several grand larcenies, as told by a highly decorated combat veteran. In a fitting tribute to the men who lived and fought with Barnes, these vignettes are dedicated to a variety of men who were major contributors to the successes that Barnes experienced, with a deep sense of gratitude that is expressed at the end of each vignette. The personal miracle that Barnes experienced during the Tet Counter-Offensive became the basis for his deep involvement with the Kairos Prison Ministry. Not surprisingly, Barnes offers thanks to his God for the multitude of blessings he has received during his military career and beyond, and hopes that this book will contribute to a better understanding of the ultimate goal of our mission in Vietnam and the healing of old wounds, both physical and mental.

Moscow, Thursday, September 10th 7:47 A.M. Max Prokopchenko wasn't any different from most teens. He dreaded school, was lazy, and from time to time got himself into crazy situations. But nothing compared to what kind of bizarre scheme he found himself in when he joined the W.A.A.S.D. all for his best friend, Tamoyra Ulinova. What seemed like a normal student exchange program, turns out to be something out his wildest dreams. A Russian spy program designed to discretely send teenagers all over the world to stop international crimes and gather intellect under the identity of an average student. Now, with the help of 3 other members, Otto Kalanderishvili, Larissa Kosmachevshaia, and Kaden Rokitskaia, Max and Tamoyra have been given the instructions to solve an undercover case known only to the W.A.A.S.D. The first plan is that they must find information to stop the transfer of nuclear weapons from reaching Iran from the USA, for the fear of an all out nuclear war breaking out. As the teens come closer to fulfilling their mission, their information changes direction and assignments from Moscow. Then they encounter obstacles and tragedy amongst themselves and each have the option to return to Russia. After some thought to return to their homes in Russia the excitement of their mission draws them together again using their wits and skills to overcome some unimaginable obstacles and find themselves assisting the Russian FSB in other countries in the final showdown. But will their efforts be enough to prevent the mass destruction that Iran seeks to catalyze? Could something like this really happen?

We are not responsible when they choose the wrong path. Do you have a teenager or adult child whose difficulties seem to be preventing you from living your life? We are not responsible when they choose the wrong path. We are not responsible to carry them if they take drugs or commit crimes. Even when they have a disease such as mental illness, we cannot carry this load for them. Do you feel guilty as if you can't do enough to help? Do you question what you didn't do right or what you did wrong? Are you compelled to somehow make this right? You can be freed from this false belief and start living your life. God does not hold you responsible. Galatians 6:5 says, for each one should carry his own load. Taking on others' responsibilities is not being a good person; it is enabling the person and preventing them from growing as a person. It is important to know what you are responsible for and what you are not. My son Bradley had paranoid schizophrenia. It was serious and I had to learn new ways to cope and help him. Much of what I needed to learn was to give it to God and then find people to help me. After ten years of Brad in several apartments, group homes and the mental health complex, he passed - my son died due to his medication that ruined his heart. I stand only by the grace of God. In this book, I impart to you what has helped me.
