This Is a Precious Thing

Grandma Butter was our next-door neighbor. The immigrant widow of a Polish baker, she had come to California because of the warm climate, because her ailing brother lived there, and probably, to be frank, because there was nowhere else for her to go. She lived in a Quonset hut next door to our Quonset hut, near the hospital where my doctor husband was doing his residency. But these were temporary lodgings for us, and I didn't see any need to become Grandma Butter's great friend.

A Perfect Match

I put up my new 1994 calendar in the kitchen, feeling like I'd finally gotten my life back on track. The past year since my divorce had been a long, hard struggle, but my three boys and I had adjusted to our single-mom household.

My job at a furniture factory kept food on the table and paid the bills. And I'd started going to church again with my mom. I couldn't quite believe as she did that God had a deep, personal interest in our lives—I figured he had more important things to worry about than me—but I definitely found comfort in being closer to him.

It’s Up to You

Lots of us have been there. Stuck in a job that gets us down. You know the feeling. You dread Mondays. You watch the clock, praying for the workday to be over. This can be a recipe for misery. On average, Americans spend 80 percent of their waking hours at work. That's way too much time to be unhappy. Every job has its challenges. Everyone has bad days at work. But if you find yourself screaming, "I hate this job!" once too often, it's time to change your life a little—or a lot.

Courage to Change

Looking back now, I can see it was fear that was holding me back. Not fear of dying. Fear of trying. I was afraid to succeed. I was afraid to be different. I was afraid to walk away from a fight. Why? Because for most of my life, I didn't know any other way to be.

I'm from Niagara Falls. A beautiful place, you think. And you'd be right, if you were talking about the Canadian side, the part that tourists flock to.

Hello, My Name Is…

Everyone who sees Scott Ginsberg knows who he is right away. And it’s not because he’s famous for anything. It’s because he wears a nametag. Twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week.

On his way out of an event in college, Scott noticed a trashcan full of discarded name-tags. "I thought, What would happen if I left mine on all day?" He got his answer quickly. The simple act of putting his name out in the open "inspired these great conversations, and I started meeting all these new people," he says.

The Closing

!--paging_filter--pAs a little girl I dreamed of growing up and living in a house just like the one my uncle owned: a huge Victorian with creaky floors and glass doorknobs where our whole family could gather on holidaysmdash;a real home. /p pNow my husband, Larry, and I were finally going to buy our first house: a small bungalow that at least had space for a proper dining-room table. It wasn't exactly our dream home; it was a compromise based on our budget. /p pWe were settling for something cute and comfortable that would be all ours: the perfect starter house.nbsp;/p pa href=http://www.guideposts.com/story/mysterious-ways-house-closingread more/a/p

pSoon I’ll be greeted by some very special women. quot;My ladies,quot; I call them. They mean the world to me. So does this shop. Yet if I had my druthers, I would close it down tomorrow, after nearly 30 years. Let me explain./p
pI was a young nursing student in California, full of idealistic dreams back in 1976. I didn’t know where life would take me, but like many students, I felt a desire to make a difference./p
