Foreword
As the lives of the individuals interwoven throughout this novel evolve, the reader will experience wonderment; extreme sadness; jumping for joy and laughing out loud; dismay as they are brought to their knees in shock; relief; curiosity and a feeling of family as they become intimately involved in the life of each character.
The reader will come to know that life isn’t what we think that it should be, but it is a gift that is presented to each individual to make the best of what they are given.
By being true to yourself and continuing on in the face of whatever may come, we are all transformed into our highest potential, with destiny leading each of us to where our heart truly resides.

Acknowledgments
This is the first in a series of Mysterious Destiny books. Yes, my very first book which would never have happened without the constant influence and support from God, my wonderful children, grandchildren and friends.
Thank you so much: Geri and Stacey, for being my first guinea pigs and reading my first draft. I think that you’ll really be surprised with how it has evolved.
Annell, my childhood friend, I can always count on you. Jaimie, without your questions, thoughts, suggestions, and continuous encouragement, I would never have taken the steps that I needed to, to make this book into what it is today.
Chad, your help in the advertising part of this adventure took a lot off my shoulders. Most people don’t understand that writing a book is only the beginning. I am happy with the book video trailer, You Tube, My Space and Face Book, along with my web sites www.SnowFlowerPublishing.com and www.MysteriousDestiny.com. I learned a lot, but you know so much more.
Phillip, what a great idea for a logo for my publishing company Snow Flower Publishing and Shane your thought to make the flower smaller led to the final look of the logo.
Christian, Jessica, Danny and Danielle your encouragement was always appreciated.
My wonderful grandchildren, your love and constant interest in the progress of this book filled me with excitement as I rounded the corner to the finish. I can’t wait for you to read it.
Supportive friends, now you’ll understand why I went into seclusion for so long. I love you all, D. J. Holmes.
Through experiences that we have no control over,
life can send you into the very depths of despair
or
It can be full of wonderful unexpected simple fulfilling pleasures.
May your life be the latter,
Sincerely, D. J. Holmes
