Love, Life, & Happiness This book was written due to having many trials in life, but in the midst of it all the sun continued to shine for me. Although, I am excited about each poem written or poetry book published I am more excited about my second publication than I was with my first. Each poem has been written with lots of feeling and dedication. There may be many who will agree or disagree with what I have written but my work is written for society''''s approval; it is written due to how I feel or the things I see. Life is a challenge for us all; even the richest of the rich have trials and tribulations in life. No matter what, we can''''t escape what lies ahead for us. We have to learn to adjust to our own situations to better help ourselves as well as others. We have to learn to help one another not be against one another. I know it''''s easier said than done. But we have to try to make this world a better place for ourselves and mainly for our children. Yes, it will take a lot of time and effort but we have to start somewhere and remain dedicated to helping one another and try and maintain a more positive atmosphere for everyone. Many have said to me "when your book is published don''''t forget me" There are many I won''''t forget and there are many I''''d rather not deal with I am only being as honest as possible. For those of you that vanished from my life for whatever reasons please don''''t plan to re-appear just because I have published a few books. A friend will be a friend till the end not when "money" appears. No, I may not be like my poetry but do I have to? Are you the same in every way possible of your life? We all have different ways of expressing how we feel when no one is there to listen, as for me, I write. I have worked hard and struggled and have overcome many obstacles there are few who have stood at my side through it all and there are few who will join in my celebrations. I would like to thank each and every person that has supported me by purchasing my books and forwarding me your letters. Thank you to each and every "true" friend" that has been there for me Thank you to each and every "true" family member that showed support from the very beginning. Thank you to each and every staff member at 1st Books Library for doing such a wonderful job. Thanks to the websites that have displayed my work. Most of all, thank you God for showing me a side of me that I didn''''t know existed.

This story is based on a true love story that spanned almost two decades. The names and places have been changed to protect the privacy of the individuals involved in this affair. The chronological sequence of events has been maintained for continuity. All the stories and experiences are based on facts. This book is about a love story that was kept secret for 18 years and perhaps shouldve remained a secret. The first book related to this love story was a book of poems entitled Somewhere, Sometime, Somehow: Love Poems and Short Stories published in 2008 by this author and Xlibris. For the perceptive reader of this book one can trace the ups and downs of our love relationship. These 18 years were filled with robust love and passion for each other. Perhaps it was fantasy; perhaps it was the most real thing we will ever experience. The heartbreaking part of this love affair is that I am not really sure my lover ever really understood or appreciated my profound and unconditional love for her. I opened my heart to her through poetry and thoughtful letters, but she rarely showed me what was in her heart. Perhaps it was a one-sided love affair, but I surely think and hope not. I was convinced that she truly loved me through her words and actions. At least I experienced a pure love that I had only dreamed was possible. The story is told mainly through the exchange of letters and emails to each other. Perhaps readers can experience and hopefully feel the deep love we felt for each other.

ISBN: 0307559963

In this national bestseller, the president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Gordon B. Hinckley, has created a classic look at the values that can change our world--and how to stand up for them. Drawing on anecdotes from his much-admired life of faith and service, as well as examples from American culture today, he examines ten virtues that have always illuminated the path to a better world: love, honesty, morality, civility, learning, forgiveness and mercy, thrift and industry, gratitude, optimism, and faith. He then shows how the two guardians of virtue--marriage and the family--can keep us on that path, even in difficult times. Standing for Something is an inspiring blueprint for what we all can do--as individuals, as a nation, and as a world community--to rediscover the values and virtues that have historically made us strong and that will lead us to a brighter future.
