Sometimes, there are twists and turns in life that come at a time when you least expect it. Last night, when I gave a talk at Barnes & Noble about my book, When Angels Call Your Name, I told how one of these wonderful happenings occurred. In the book, the story entitled The Day I Drowned, is about a guy named Roy. He drowned and was under water for twenty minutes and yet, lived to tell me about this terrible experience. Roy’s best friend, Mike saved his life. After I published my book, I sent a copy to Roy. He bought three more books and sent one to Mike’s mother. Unfortunately, Mike died at 49 from complications due to years of alcohol abuse. However, his sister wanted her children to know that their uncle Mike was more than just a drinker, that he once saved a man’s life. She ordered several books, one for her son, daughter and granddaughter.  “His life had a purpose,” she wrote to me in an email. You see, this story grew and took on a life of its own.
