What does it mean to be unique? Well, Websters Dictionary says:

“1. Existing as the only one of a kind. 2. Having no equal; unparalleled.”

Does that fit you? Do you feel unique? Maybe you don’t. Maybe you feel like the world is pulling you down like a huge magnate, and you have no meaning; no purpose in life.

Time to put a stop to that, my friend!

God made you and then through away the mold. You are  one of a kind. You are placed on this earth for a purpose.

I didn’t always believe that myself. When I retired from teaching, I didn’t have a clear road ahead of me. I wondered, “What now?” I didn’t feel very unique at all. As a matter of fact on March 31st, 2001, I was sitting in my Explorer trying to decide if I wanted to check out of this hotel called earth. God got in the Explorer with me and held my hand. He showed me I was still unique, and had a purpose  to follow from God.

That purpose was writing my book, “Signs of Hope: ways to Survive in an Unfriendly World.” God had me write this book to reach out to those who may be at the same spot I was in my Explorer. I relate them them, and share words of hope, and survival.

There have been many people who have bought this book, who have called, emailed, or told me n person, that this book was written just for them and it gave them the tools to face the daily battle of life.

Never, ever give up!

What can we do as parents to be a good example to our children? We should realize that everything we do is being watch by them.

We are living in an, “Monkey see, monkey do,” world. If you are a kind and understanding parent, your children will probably be kind and understand. If you drink, your children will probably drink. If you take drugs, your children will probably take drugs. I think you get the picture.

Take an inventory of your life. What do you see? Is your life one you would be glad for your children to have?

I wasn’t always the perfect parent. Sometimes far from it, but I stuck to my Christian principles, and raised children that did the same. All three of my children are Christians, and they married Christian spouses.

You can say my job is done here on earth, but we are to be examples until we take our last breath.
