Could it be that whenever we say, "I can't do that," or "I don't have time to try that," or "I don't want to do that," we're ignoring an opportunity? Could it be that saying yes more often in life almost guarantees more opportunities? The author believes that nothing in life is an accident, and wrote this book to inspire and entertain readers with true stories covering an amazing range of widely divergent topics. Some of the subjects covered are common to most people, love and marriage, birth, death, family problems, as well as business successes and failures. Others include mental health issues (bi-polar, Alzheimer's, and autism), kittens, ghosts, animal communications, a congressman, spirituality, a knife-wielding hitchhiker, Hell's Angels...and more. Her hope is that readers will be entertained and inspired by the stories as they are reminded of occasions in their own lives which have taught and strengthened them.
