Today she could finally spread her wings and fly away from this dreary place that she had known as her home for the past thirteen years.

This is a true story of a place and time I never thought I would find myself. I was 62 years old and happily married for 15 years. I attended a so called "Spiritual Healing" seminar with a girlfriend of mine.

Close enough to the city for work purposes, and far enough out in the sticks to put...

Honestly, I'd never taken anything seriously, but certain circumstances had forced me to make sure I was in the right position to get a good paying job. And what we...
We'd made the plans. We'd meet at Perth Airport and fly to Port Hedland and then charter a helicopter to take us to isolated Monkey Mia beach. At last the day has come. As the Cessna landed on the beach we could see that we were alone. We jumped down and waved the pilot goodbye. He wouldn't be back until 1 hour before sundown. Monkey Mia is beautiful. Glea...
