    This is a remarkable dog story of a highly intelligent and gifted, athletic dog challenged against insurmountable odds in an attempt to regain his health and his life back after an acute accident. It is a deep bond between owner and pet canine or, better said, two best friends working together to discover a path to survival. Canine fibrocartilaginous embolism, better known as canine FCE, is not a term widely known by most dog owners; however, all dog owners will find this story riveting as they will learn and witness what can be accomplished when the love of an owner for his dog combined with man's best friend loyally work in unison. You will find this story to be heartwarming, emotional, serious, and funny. It will grab you and draw you in. You will put yourself into the story and wonder, Would you have stayed on this train of a true story, or would you have departed somewhere along the way?On average, 44 percent of the population in the USA own a dog. They are entwined deeply throughout the families they live and cohabitate with. Dogs have a way of discovering our mood changes, if we are sick, and if there is danger nearby. They are loyal to a fault and always happy to see us when we arrive. How far would we go to support them when the odds are against you? Reading this story will definitely make you ask yourself that question. I wrote this book because this story has to be told. I hope you enjoy the ride.

    Stinky Stuff is a story of challenges, resilience, and perseverance. It's a story of how anyone can learn early that circumstances (surrounding conditions) don't make you who you are nor what you want to become, but it's how you handle those circumstances that makes the difference. Yes, the character was a slow reader, and his words never seem to come out right when reading aloud. Yes, it made him feel scared, embarrassed, alone, and hurt when reading aloud. And yes, he wanted to run out of the class when the tingling in his legs and the butterflies in his stomach became almost unbearable with fear of having to reveal his weakness to his classmates. Yet he sat through it all as his selfaEUR"e;esteem went underground. But then, some encouraging words were spoken with a belief that could not be ignored. His mother said, "e;Challenge yourself,"e; and that he did.

    We may see chaos when God sees purpose. Life itself is a test, but the test is not as important as how we respond to it. If we fail the test, we must keep taking it until we pass. The Word of God gives us direction, wisdom, and encouragement, so that we may pass the test. God has given Darryl the power of poetry. Like parables, they are contemporary lessons to understand God's word, "e;so that they might provoke us to learn to love and do good"e; (Heb. 10:24).

    On a warm, moonlit night in mid-June 1865, three days prior to Beau and Carlotta Wells's scheduled departure, an unsigned note was attached to a door at the main entrance to the vigilance committees' headquarters in a small community called Quiet Creek, located about fifteen miles west of Pine Grove City, Kentucky.

Beau and Carlotta's outright defiance of the moral code enraged the vigilantes, and all hell broke loose!

    This book is a must read for every human being. It is the spirituality, psychology and sociology of the Love of the Liberty of The Truth. After you read this book you will understand how these relate holistically to the two spiritual motivations in the universe:The Truth of the Love of Liberty versus the addiction to The Lie of fearful lustful selfishness. False prophets are attempting to keep us enslaved. They tell us we have no choice in how we act and think. They convince us to give up our power to lifeless objects and negative spirits. They devalue the invaluable and inhibit the implementation of which, all for false profits, while children die of starvation. Do not believe them. We all have a choice in how we choose to think and what motivates us. There is a reason why anyone would feel negative. There is a reason why the world is spiraling out of control. The invaluable of The Truth of Love and Liberty is infinitely more important than unabated consuming and superficial fake pleasures. In the invaluable of The Truth we will finally manifest our destiny and become The United States of Liberty and Justice for all. Even if you do not want to do any good thing in this book, don't inhibit those who do and at least hold all of the leaders of The United States to the standards set forth. Yet for those who realize quickly and take it to heart, you will feel the greatest empowerment of Truth Loves Liberty.

    The words of Mighty God are in the Old and New Testaments. His words are love letters to His human creation. They are about living on life on earth with satan and sins and redemption for salvation by establishing a direct mutual relationship with the Creator God who shows blessings every day and night. The complex process of being alive on earth is under constant attacks by satan while we are trying to prevent dangerous outcomes and not to fall into the abyss of satan. The humanity has been given free-will by God to choose either the just and right of "e;good"e; under the light of God or the dark and wrongs of the "e;evil"e; with satan. The Divine Power of God is on our side to protect while we are on a spec of dust of this universe in the eternal fabric of the space and time across the center of the incomprehensible unknown, the home of the Creator God Almighty. The creation of this universe and the earth we live on are the expressions of His Divine Love to become with us, He wants to empower us from within, with Love and never ending glory. He wants to separate satan's evils from His star light goods. He wants us to have this short time on earth with ethical spirituality while we are on this tiny planet in circular motion around the sun of His.

    Dealing with adult and controversial themes, Daughters of the Dance is a beautiful, moving saga of three generations of strong women immersed in the art of the dance and in their profound relationships with high-powered men driven by oil, wealth, war, trade, religious beliefs, nature, female submissiveness, and sexual boundaries. It is a story of uncharted survival amid three wars in continental Europe during the first half of the twentieth century and its inevitable expansion to the Netherlands Antilles, especially the Sephardic-Ladino community of Curacao, and to the Western Hemisphere. Daughters of the Dance is a metaphor for a method the "e;daughters"e; use to enhance their spiritual being. Ayana, the introductory character, expresses a dominant human condition-the pain of sadness, guilt, and shame-and asks, "e;How do we survive without love?"e; In the words of Rumi, a Persian Sufi, "e;Whosoever knows the power of dance, dwells in the Ineffable Effulgence"e; (i.e., a nonreified Presence), they discover their primordial selves-originated, born, formed, and unfiltered. At a deeper level, the characters encounter lo real maravilloso americano (magic realism) in raw, latent, and ever-present states of being in elegant timelessness. In a way, Rumi pointed the way, "e;What you seek is seeking you."e;Daughters of the Dance invites the reader to grasp the mystery that lies behind each personality. Words and pictographs fail to fully explain experience. Hence, the novel challenges beliefs so that readers can seek out the experience of beauty and joy amid the perils of unrest that may either fester or heal. To borrow Rumi again, "e;Dance when you are perfectly free and enjoy each step along the way."e; Happy is the culture that can dance! Visit the author's website HERE!
