What happens to us when we forget something? Some of us may become frustrated, irritated, angry, or fearful. "Where did I leave my keys, my car, my life? What is this life really all about?" This is a story of a lighthouse who was placed in the middle of the ocean with a wonderful purpose. But one day that purpose was forgotten. This is the journey of that lighthouse, and possibly yours, of once again remembering and how sweet that is. Exquisite! Worth every penny, effort and intention. It glows with love, kindness, and ultimate trust and surrender. Thank you for sharing your divine light and truth. Your book has cast a lighted path my way. —Bob Becker Bob Becker Marketing & Communications Bethel, Connecticut This wonderful story has opened my heart and has gotten me to really take a look at my "old ideas" about my life and purpose. It is helping me to "step up" my faith and recognition of the light that is living in me. I am very grateful for this book assisting me to change "my story" to a happier ending. —Ron Rodrigues Retired state farm agent Martinez, California The Distant Lighthouse is truly a treasure! What a beautiful and inspiring book this is! The illustrations, the art, the lovely script in the writing and the lighthouse remembering, "Every time I shine, I will experience freedom and bliss!" What a sweet, simple way for us to remember who we truly are...just to know I am the light. It is the real me! I love it! —Mary Lynn Peters Unity Prayer Chaplain Penn Valley, California Just got the book...magnificent! It is beautiful and such an expression of divine truth and beauty! Soo inspiring! I am inspired!!" —Mary Frilot Retired nurse Tucson, Arizona
A groundbreaking look at marriage, one of the most basic and universal of all human institutions, which reveals the emotional, physical, economic, and sexual benefits that marriage brings to individuals and society as a whole. The Case for Marriage is a critically important intervention in the national debate about the future of family. Based on the authoritative research of family sociologist Linda J. Waite, journalist Maggie Gallagher, and a number of other scholars, this book’s findings dramatically contradict the anti-marriage myths that have become the common sense of most Americans. Today a broad consensus holds that marriage is a bad deal for women, that divorce is better for children when parents are unhappy, and that marriage is essentially a private choice, not a public institution. Waite and Gallagher flatly contradict these assumptions, arguing instead that by a broad range of indices, marriage is actually better for you than being single or divorced– physically, materially, and spiritually. They contend that married people live longer, have better health, earn more money, accumulate more wealth, feel more fulfillment in their lives, enjoy more satisfying sexual relationships, and have happier and more successful children than those who remain single, cohabit, or get divorced. The Case for Marriage combines clearheaded analysis, penetrating cultural criticism, and practical advice for strengthening the institution of marriage, and provides clear, essential guidelines for reestablishing marriage as the foundation for a healthy and happy society. “A compelling defense of a sacred union. The Case for Marriage is well written and well argued, empirically rigorous and learned, practical and commonsensical.” -- William J. Bennett, author of The Book of Virtues “Makes the absolutely critical point that marriage has been misrepresented and misunderstood.” -- The Wall Street Journal www.broadwaybooks.com

It is never possible to return literally to times and events of the past. Even places revisited will not be the same as they were. But we can, at least to some extent, go back in our minds. In trying to capture some of the past and record for posterity my lifetime of adventures, I find that my memory has been stretched more than I thought possible. The mind is a funny thing, and time is slippery stuff, but someone has said that we remember more than we think we do; that years after the fact, one day things fall into place and we say, "Ah yes, I remember that well.
