Many people believe in "luck" but don't really believe they are "lucky." I've survived fires, floods, and car accidents and almost drowned twice. When I was a teenager, I walked into a store and saw a man using a knife to rob the owner. I turned and ran and was stabbed in the back. The police arrived, arrested the thief and drove me to the hospital, where I was "stitched up." I'm a survivor, even though I could have died a dozen times. Moku was a rabbit. He would have been an...

Christmas is the best time and the worst time. If you have a family, children, loved ones, friends, Christmas is the best, happiest time of the year. If you are alone, it is a sad, painful, depressing time. Making new friends and finding new companions is very difficult. Apparently the best places for seniors to find new mates is Botswana and Iceland. I don't think anyone wants to travel to Botswana or Iceland to find a mate. Two million seniors in Canada will spend Christmas...

God created the Earth and everything in it, and He put Adam in charge. Apparently, the millions of animals had mates, but Adam did not have a mate. In Genesis 2:18, God said, "It is not good that man should be alone, I will make him a help mate for him." And God created Eve, and we all know what happened next.

My children live thousands of miles away. Sadly, most of my close friends have died. I was facing another Christmas alone. I spent last Christmas alone and...

My daughter, Storm, has an incredible memory. She can remember everything I ever did that was wrong. Recently she reminded me of an incident that happened when she was a teenager. It was late at night and I remembered I needed some cash for something I had to do the next morning. I didn't want to drive to the bank alone to use the ATM machine so asked my daughter to go with me. She was ready for bed, wearing pajamas with cows jumping over the moon printed on them and house...

When I was five years old, my twelve-year-old cousin, who was a bully and who teased and tormented me without mercy, pushed me into the river. I couldn't swim and would have drowned but a man who was fishing nearby saw what happened, jumped into the river and saved me. This left me with a life long fear of water. When I was eight-years-old, I was in a car with three uncles and two aunts. We were on a country road, and as we crossed an old wooden bridge, the bridge collapsed...
