Canoeing 100 miles in the Everglades (Short Story) - 12/12/2008 2:12:12 PM
Wow, what an adventure!
I'm such a wimp. I've been canoeing off and on for fifty-five years but on calm rivers or modest-sized lakes, only, and even then never with so much as a brisk wind blowing. Now I know why!
If you take a moment to visit my AD site and review my poem "Be Still and Hear My Voice" and its accompanying picture, you'll soon have the measure of my sane and controlled quest to experience Nature and commune with God.
Thank you for sharing with us your exciting and demanding contact with wilderness and total insanity. I loved it. But don't count on me to inquire of you, "Where can I find some good paddling?" I ain't gonna listen to ya. No way!

Few drops of tears and a fervent prayer on the passing of a beautiful and devoted creature. Like my Blackie, I believe she's now living a blissful existence in another realm. Be glad Niki.
Sincerely,
Regino

In Memory of Kitty Cat 2000-2008 (Short Story) - 7/20/2008 12:46:05 PM
Niki,
I am sorry about the death of your cat. We have one, Roxy and she is getting older. I know what it means to lose one thought because Roxy's son Merlin died a couple of years ago and we still think of him. One thing that I've learned from animals is that their love is unconditional, unlike humans. Roxy always greets us at the door and if we have been away for a few days, she gets excited when we return.
I am glad your wrote this.

Sick in the Okefenokee Swamp (Short Story) - 4/19/2005 6:22:02 PM
Niki, this is a beautiful story.
My husband and I love canoeing and white water rafting... we've been down a few choice rivers (the Chattooga in Georgia and the New in Virgina come to mind) paddling and praying depending on the class of rapid ... My spirit is also often left back at the river after having come home.
Your story is idyllic, in spite of Marty becoming ill... I am so sorry for that and hope it was nothing serious.

The Will to Live (Short Story) - 1/26/2005 9:18:10 AM
I resonated deeply with this story. I've always been estranged from my mother (I think because I was born deafened) and she died 2 years ago before we could make peace. That's a tough situation to live with. I wish I had read this story 2 years ago. But as they say, it's better late than never.

Meeting the Mice (Article) - 11/17/2007 2:27:57 AM
I LOVED this article and welcomed the warm feelings I received while enjoying it. I have been setting "humane" traps for a family of possums living in my own basement. I have caught 2 young possums and 1 large one and released them near the river hoping they may reunite and have more adventures in their natural environment (although many friends have informed me they can find their way home over many miles!!)

Twenty-four more reasons to withdraw the U.S. troops in Iraq (Article) - 8/30/2007 4:27:22 PM
I believe that Bushes own party will force a pull out of all of the US troops sooner than later. They can not go to the country in 08 if this thing is still going on. They will be wiped out. However if there is another major incident in the US all bets are off. Unfortunately the 'win the war dialogue' has been coined. It never has been a war. It was an adventure to topple Saddam, a good thing one might add, although there are devious side issues to that. All that should have been said after that was, 'we will try to help you democratise but we can only go so far, the rest is up to you' The 'so far' period has long been exhausted. Win the war rhetoric is so negative as if they could possibly loose it but to all intents and purposes they have lost other things big time now...vast amounts of money...young soldiers lives...prestige and just plain believe ability. That mission has been accomplished.
The Bible's conflicting moral guidelines (Article) - 5/6/2007 1:17:11 PM
Thank you Niki for posting this well-researched article. Reading parts of the Bible and assuming they are true, I find it really difficult to resolve that the God before Jesus is a loving God.

The Wisdom of Native American Spirituality (Article) - 6/16/2006 5:34:42 AM
True freedom is to live in harmony with nature. Problems and destruction arise when we are ignorant of our relation to nature and life. Destroying nature results in an imbalance.
This, I truly believe; and I also believe that ancient Native Americans were much wiser than many in our modern world care to believe.

Anger (Poetry) - 12/12/2008 1:45:15 PM
I don't understand. This offering of wisdom and insight has been posted here for 3 1/2 years, yet no one has seen fit to leave even one review or comment? What's the matter with my fellow writers/readers? If they want a comment or review of their material from us, they better do their part. This neglect makes me mad as hell!
One, 2, 3, 4, 5... Okay. I'm under control, now.
From one who has been married for 57 years and helped raise four children, let me express how especially important one word is: "Forgive."
Solid, straight-forward advice, Niki. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience.

The Parent's Gift (Poetry) - 12/11/2008 1:51:09 PM
Life is a journey of experiences which offer lessons to learn. Sadly, sometimes we learn and sometimes we don't. But I believe there is no greater gift to offer our children than to let them understand that their parents love one another.
The last stanza of "The Parents' Gift" shares a powerful insight.
Thank you for sharing this quality write with us, Niki.
