How far would you go to save a stranger?As a 77-year-old with advanced Parkinson's disease, Mr. Niyogi's days are saturated with the pain gradually taking over his monotonous routine. Although the future seems bleak, he's left wondering if he still has a purpose. Will he simply fade into obscurity, or fight to leave an unforgettable legacy?Then the news breaks of a young man stranded on a remote island with no rescue in sight.Mr. Niyogi cannot ignore his protective instincts. Despite his physical and mental limitations and skepticism of those around him, he resolves to take matters into his own hands. Though he knows his chances of success are slim, he refuses to abandon the marooned young man, and the hope of devoting his last days doing one last act of sacrifice gives him a new lease on life.But how can an elderly Indian accountant in declining health rescue a miner trapped in the Maldives?Mr. Niyogi's Last Audit is a bittersweet literary fiction novel about the struggles of maintaining dignity and purpose in the face of aging and neurodegenerative disease. Its reflective tone and artistic flair provide a pensive social commentary on aging, loss of independence, the human condition, and the ironclad will of a person with one last chance to make a difference.

Howdy I'm Eddie Smith and this is the story of my second romantical adventure with my new boyfriend, Whit Hall. Well, we're back in Daytona Beach and have been for about five weeks. After everything went down with Whit's family in East Texas, it sure has been nice just to be here, getting to know each other more and more every day. Mostly, we've been watching old Perry Mason episodes on DVD and eating lots of pizza. But Whit has been going to the gym every day. I go too... Sometimes...Anyway... We woke up this morning and were both freezing We just had a cold snap. They're rare in North Central Florida, but they do happen. And, on top of all that, the heater has gone out. But, cuddled up next to Whit is keeping us both warm, so I guess it might be not so bad. You know how weird it is when you thought someone was dead but then you find out they aren't? Kinda freaky, right? Well, that's what's just happened. See, there's this guy who used to be a private detective here in town with his husband who was an attorney. And that was way back in the day. They left Daytona in the 50s and moved down to Fort Lauderdale. I think they were required to do so by the gay committee or something like that. Anyway, I just got a call from a guy who says that Ronnie Grisham (he's the private eye I mentioned) is not only alive, but he's living in a big house over on the beachside. Not only that, he's 102 years old and he wants to see me. Wow Whit and I are on our way over right now. I have a feeling something big is about to go down. I can't wait to find out what happens next

We must begin to replace our frustrated vocabulary with faith vocabulary. We must begin to cast down doubt by quoting God's divine word back to Him. We must begin to use the word to achieve a level of personal and professional success that the world can't give, nor take away. Do you desire more of GOD? Is your life in a state of URGENCY? Do you crave a shift in the STAGNATED air that you've been breathing? This book is going to help you shift your language. There is so much GOD has in store for us, but our words, actions, attitude, and faith must be on one accord. My prayer is that you will enjoy the positive devotions.
