Writing Inspirational Stories About Everyday People
By Del Duduit Everyone faces challenges. I was never promised a daily walk through the rose garden, although a stroll through a Tim Horton’s coffee shop might be a little better. There are times when I feel happy – especially when I am around my grandkids. They have a unique way of showing unconditional love.… Continue reading We All Have Special Needs
By Del Duduit Have you ever thought you deserved more recognition and never got it? It’s happened to me, and I’m sure it’s taken place in your life. I’m not bitter, but there have been times I have wondered why. And that’s okay. Perhaps an incident in your life has become an obsession. You think… Continue reading Forgiveness over Bitterness

That’s a day set aside by retailers as a real life pay-per-view boxing match. I avoid that day and stay hunkered down and nearly unconscious from my food-induced… Continue reading What Did Mary Know?
By Del Duduit Today’s society wants everything NOW. Instant gratification. The need people have for information at their fingertips has destroyed the newspaper industry. Who wants to wait until tomorrow for “old news?” This is just an example. I could give you tons more. I have been in professional sales most of my work life.… Continue reading Waiting for Food
