Just Messing Around
Just Messing Around is a zany rollercoaster ride through a latchkey child's world of antics and misadventures, laughter and fisticuffs, skirting problems, and hatching wacky schemes. The author, like so many of his generation, lived an unsupervised childhood that characterized many suburban Long Island communities of the early 60s. Absent parents, these kids ran wild in their rural, suburban world. They saw themselves as frontiersmen, daredevils, and self-confessed hellions. These children were also alone way too much, sometimes frightened, and in serious need of discipline and hugs. This heartwarming collection of stories, seen through the eyes of one kid, depicts their lives of roaming fields and woods, surviving their daily, madcap adventures, exploring haunted farmhouses, and, as we kids would say, just messing around.

To Coney, With Love
Coney Island was the finest amusement park of its day, not only in the minds of its patrons but in the esteem of its peers. A visit by Walt Disney in 1953 seeking advice on his new dream, Disneyland, confirmed the park's stature. To Coney, With Love will fill your heart with memories from grandparents who rode the Island Queen to dance the night away at the nationally acclaimed Moonlite Gardens, or the young Aquanaut swim team kids who spent numerous days in Coney's pool in the early morning hours. You will read the stories from married couples who met while working their first jobs at the park and have created future generations of Coney Island memory-makers and stories about the rides that made for thrilling moments while creating memorable experiences. Many felt such a deep connection to Coney Island that they spread their loved one's ashes there, much like Rob Lowe did with his dad's. During the winter of 2024, the shocking news of the park's closing was announced. It was then that a friendship was kindled between Rob Lowe and Katy Mark. Their lives were connected in search of a Coney plaque that was missing and they quickly realized there was synergy between the two of them. Rob Lowe, whose dad was Bob Lowe, "Captain of the Guards" at Coney Island's Sunlite Pool for 50 years, grew up at the park creating day-to-day memories that turned into a lifetime of love for the park. Katy was one of the "full-timers" as the Coney kids called the few that worked year-round as most employees were seasonal. She was there the day the city came out to enjoy the amusement park rides for the last time in 2019 and also experienced the loss the day she found out that Coney would be closing its doors forever. Together, each with unique perspectives, Katy and Rob set out hoping to bring a grieving city together and allow Coney's loved ones, the opportunity to keep their memories alive, each with their unique points of view as to how the park affected their lives.

I have tried to live by Philippians 4:6 (NIV) which is "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." And to be content with every situation in your life Philippians 4:11b. "Be content whatever the circumstances." 12b "being content in any and every situation." And John 14:1 "Do not let your hearts be troubled, but trust in God; and trust also in me (Jesus Christ)." Dad's actions made me want to try my best and try to accomplish as much as I could even if I had to teach myself along the way. That's why I feel I am truly a "Daddy's Girl". I'm very proud of my accomplished children and grandchildren today. They felt education was important and always strive to be successful. I have been through a lot from losing the joy of my life, Gene, to Alzheimer's and my precious son, Jeff, to cancer. After writing my second book, "Perseverance and Persistence" about my Swedish immigrant father, comes my autobiography, "Daddy's Girl" from a man who taught me perseverance and persistence.

"Someone's sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago"-- Warren Buffett -- It is well known that the school system does not include wealth creation in its curriculum, resulting in a knowledge gap that the booming wealth management industry exploits.

As It Was in the Beginning
Marriage is a gift much like eternal life. God is the one who bestows upon us the potential to love and be loved within the institution of marriage. Every human being who has it receives eternal life as a gift. When we initially entered the world, we did not have it. We were born by the first Adam and destined for death. We did not create eternal life or create it from within us through some mysterious process. It is a gift rather than a domesticated plant planted and nourished on human soil. Therefore, marriage is not given as a reward for good deeds. Since receiving a reward is necessary for doing service, it cannot be a gift. The word "gift" eliminates any connotation of debt. If something is a gift or a grace, it is no longer an obligation or a recompense. Like eternal life, when God implants it in anyone's soul, it is a free gift of Jesus Christ given to the unworthy rather than the deserving. Therefore, we do not see a justification to divorce or revoke marriage from someone who has already acquired it. Imagine if a billionaire gave a poor man a $1 million mansion, and shortly after, the man suffered a hip dislocation in an accident. He could continue taking part in the gift like before his hip dislocated. If his latter situation was taken into account in any way, no one would be able to stop him from receiving the benefit any more than As It Was In The Beginning 02 they could have stopped him from ever receiving it. The billionaire did not give the poor man the mansion as someone who deserved it; it was a gift. The billionaire had already given the poor man the mansion, so there was no reason to stop him from continuing to live there. Just like Mephibosheth did not intentionally become handicapped, the poor man did not intentionally injure himself, and as a result, he was permitted to sit at David's table even though he was a lame man. "David said to him, Fear not, for I will surely show you kindness for Jonathan your father's sake, and will restore to you all the land of Saul your father [grandfather], and you shall eat at my table always" (1Samuel 9:7). Or why the present tense, as we have it here, should not always be a present fact. Alternatively, if the poor man abused the mansion, the millionaire had given him, the billionaire had the right to rescind the gift if his name was still associated with it and his reputation was tarnished as a result of the poor man's actions. Without question, marriage is a gift that God never intended to be taken away from anyone. Boredom, communication problems, lack of attention, lack of appreciation, anger issues, unrealistic expectations, division of labor, power inequality, lack of appreciation, stress, and issues are like broken legs and hips in marriages. Although they may affect the joy of marriage they are not justifications for a Giver of the gift of marriage to withdraw it from a beneficiary. It is more of a rationale for the husband and wife to adjust to each other based on their experiences and natural tendencies. Marriage Is A Gift 03 The Unknown Giver Of The Gift Of Marriage And The Abused Gifts T here is a story about a president who was already in office and was seeking reelection. It was at a time when the majority of his country, which had supported him in his first election, had grown weary of his administration's lack of effective leadership. Consequently, in accordance with the presidential polls, they planned to flip parties. In a presidential debate with his opponent, the moderator questioned the incumbent president about whether he had made an effort to visit areas where most people planned to change their party affiliation. The country's incumbent president responded: "Yes, I have, and I believe they are a segment of the country with a short memory, are they not?" They were the majority that elected him to an office just three years prior, but he claimed he had no idea if that was true or not.
