Why must we hurt?


We are humbled by hunger, and then fed with manna. Our ancestors were not acquainted to such food nor are we. God did this to tell us ALL; we don’t live on bread alone.

My heart is healing tonight, feeling thralled….What is my lesson in this, GOD?

(Hunger can be replaced with any word that you are troubled with.)

Something....left behind.


Someone asked me once, "How do you feel about getting published?"

I answered that person, "I thought about that question. My best answer is, 'After I'm gone at least I'll have something for my family. Joseph and the Tamanawis Spirit will be on a bookshelf in somebodies home.'"

I have always been the person to listen to people talk in the group. I surround myself with people like that; I don't really feel that I have too much to offer. When it comes to everyday conversations. Through this book I was able to express some of my thoughts. It is a fictional book but I believe in a good lifestyle; that is shared.

If you read the book PLEASE tell your family and friends to purchase it and share it as well.

Barnes & Noble

December 22, 2012 Joey and I went to Olympia to stay the night at Little Creek Resort.
We stopped by the Barnes & Noble book store and I found, Joseph and the Tamanawis Spirit.
It was in the "Culture" section. I signed the books and a Barnes & Noble salesclerk named, Rachel, put it up front with the local author books :) Thank you Rachel!

Enough

These Tragedies Must End!

My thoughts are with the parents and community of the Sandy Hook school dist.
Also with the people that have trouble throughout the Holidays.
Parents, Sons, Daughters, Brothers, Sisters, Grandparents, Aunts, and Uncles that are separated due to a quarrel keeping them apart.
And the people whom have had someone die in the family during the holiday.

My heart is heavy today.

My comprehension in all this is that a spiritual battle is taking place. God will overcome!
Don't forget that God is the reason for the season, it is Jesus's birthday.

 
Pray for a hedge of protection upon our people today.

Attending an Indian Party!


Today I'm attending a community Indian Party here in Neah Bay at our local hall. There will be a meal shared by all that attend, Indian songs and dance, a lot of laughter, some tears, and so much pride. The celebration is for Gina's 10th year remission and her grandfather’s 70th birthday. The meal was great, and now I'm off...to watch some great Indian dancing. In my book you read about our Makah Indian Parties. They are truly impressive...let me know what you thought about the Indian party portion of, Joseph and the Tamanawis Spirit.

Barnes & Noble in Olympia, WA

Just off the Olympia Mall road a building number 1530 is the address to a Barnes & Noble Book Store. I dropped in for a second attempt to have them carry my book, Joseph and the Tamanawis Spirit. Well, it paid off. They will carry two books at a time; once they sell two more will be re-ordered. I'm so happy! The Museum here also gave me an invite to do a book reading/signing party...I just have to pick a date and time. Thank you Ruth (she works at the museum).
