Never would I have thought I would start
writing at 73 years of age. I have thoroughly enjoyed my voyage into the written spirituality of poetry and thank God for the opportunity. In my three years here I have met many new and wonderful persons. Having them accept me as a friend has been a moving experience.

What do you think about Michigan's new Right to Work Law? I couldn't believe it!! What it means is now one can work anywhere they are qualified to work whether they join a union or not. If everyone else there is in a union, you can not be forced to join.
