Nací en un pueblito del Valle de Cauca llamado Cajibío, en Colombia, pero poco después nos mudamos a Armenia, a unos 280 km de la capital, Bogotá. Cuando tenía cuatro años tuve un accidente. Me caí de un muro de tres metros y nadie se dio cuenta de que tenía heridas internas sino hasta los tres días. Los médicos dijeron …
The World War II plane dropped below the clouds. Louis Zamperini scanned the ocean for the downed bomber that had not reached its destination the day before. Suddenly, Louis felt a shudder and the engine on the far left of the plane shook violently, then stopped. The plane tipped to the left, then began to drop. Another engine failure sent …
I am Michael Da Silva, Sr. My parents immigrated to Canada from Europe with four sons. My twin and I were born in Toronto. I am thankful for honest, hardworking parents who sent us to church almost every Sunday. I like to look back at my childhood as a time of innocence. However, by the time I was 16 years …
“But why Daniel”? This question has been asked over and over. Why did he have to leave us so soon? He was so young; just a week shy of his 18th birthday. The canoe and camping trip was a go. His occupation was planned. His future was as bright as his smile. This summer morning was to be like any …

The big ‘C’ word that puts fear into the heart when the doctor makes his diagnosis has been a prominent intruder into our family. My granddaughter died of this dread disease. My mother and eight of my twelve siblings, have all died of cancer. I, one of the remaining three, have had surgery for removal of my bladder, kidney and …
I had good parents, but they were not considered ‘religious.’ I had to attend Sunday School until I was 12 years old. At the age of 14, I started listening to music that later formed the foundation for the early life decisions I made! Soon I began experimenting with what some call ‘soft drugs’ such as marijuana and drinking. Like …
How many tourists would ever stop at Craigellachie, BC were it not for a monument that marks the place where the last spike was driven in 1885 to complete the Canadian Pacific Railroad, linking Canada from Atlantic to Pacific Oceans? Waterloo in Belgium is a little village that can scarcely be found in an atlas, and yet it has assumed …
