Man's Best Friend

Here is a little story. My husband likes to open the packages that come in the mail. We had been talking about picking up Beef Jerky so when he opened up the box he saw BEEF JERKY, opened the package and began chowing down. 

He yells to me from the other room thank you for the beef jerky. Me going through my head doesn't remember ordering any Beef Jerky, then it hits me but before I can respond he is saying that they taste really good but they are a bit gritty. I bust out laughing trying to tell him it was for our Saint Bernard Princess Goliath. 

He told me I had to tell the story because he said they were really that good. *These Beef Jerky treats are not made for human consumption, but goes to show you a dog really is mans best friend so much in so that they like the same diet in food. 

Finally Princess was able to try them out after I confiscated the bag away from my hungry and very disappointed husband. She won't eat them when I give them to her, I think she waits till we are away to eat them because when we come home they are gone.

Stolen Generation

MarksvilleandMe reviews 

Stolen Generation

written by

Shari McGriff

Stolen Generation is a no nonsense writers view on past and present Stolen Generations. Very vivid and very real. Be prepared for a very short but very intense story from the past to the present bringing to life what has happened over and over again, generation after generation. 

Man has still not learned that their decisions change the world in more ways then one. Life is life, if you take a life it is murder, no matter what the circumstances. 

You can purchase Stolen Generation on Amazon.

A Short Story

A life taken; a life preserved. Who decides the outcome of a child born to poverty, slavery, or simply the wrong skin tone or ethnic descent? At our core beats a heart, bestowing the gift of life, but who has the right to determine how that life should be lived?
Come with writer, Shari McGriff, on a powerful journey from modern day, back in time, to turn-of-the century Australia. A small child is chased down a dust-filled street and ripped from his mother’s arms. “Dust-to-dust”, they say, “when we pass from one life to the next.”
Vignettes explored, take the reader on The Trail of Tears, to the farms of wealthy landowners and the gas chambers of Nazi Germany. Families, decimated by greed and lust for power, stare at one another through tear-soaked eyes and a veil of forgetfulness. These are generations robbed of everything: their heritage, past and future, their family ties, and even their names.
Surely, today things are different, more humane and civil. There is no longer a kill the Indian, save the child mentality, or is there? The poor, the uneducated, and the inconvenient are victimized, as in days past. We are all human. Are we perpetrating our own stolen generation?
Deeply moving and forcefully conveyed, this is a short story that will impact the way you look at love, life, and the need to embrace the human family. Free your mind from all earthly cares and spend a few precious minutes in the soul of a child, desperate to share the joys, and sorrows that are our existence.
