Book Description
Much has been written both about and by people who feel they were assigned the wrong body at conception, exploring the struggles and too often the tragedies that result from that mismatch of nature. Very little has been written, however, to chronicle the lifelong struggle of people to understand and come to terms with two distinct sets of emotions, one male and one female a single soul, at times divided, at times united, by two clearly identifiable spirits. Dear Mom and Dad: You Dont Know Me, But traces the life of George through the eyes of Georgia, the female half of their soul, from early childhood in the post war Texas oil fields through the innocence of his early school years in northeastern Oklahoma. With the onset of puberty, Georgia watches the omnipresent feeling of not being normal cast a destructive pall over nearly everything George attempts. After the collapse of his lifelong dream, George begins again with hopes, new dreams and the love theyve both longed for. Georgia finally emerges, but understanding her part in their soul comes slowly and is complicated by a tragedy of profound proportion. Dear Mom and Dad considers the ultimate understanding of Gods will for both George and Georgia and its unusual conclusion, sharing a story of struggle and self-acceptance.

Book Description
Who don't like gifts!? Everyone loves it. Yes. Gifts are always special, pleasant, and lovely. It demonstrates care, concern, affection, appreciation, and love. It gives us happiness. It makes us curious. It opens our eyes wide and brings a big smile on our face. At the same time, it gives us a kind of soul gratification and a feeling of relief when we gift someone something from the bottom of our heart. Especially, a gift given with care, concern and love reduces the load of our heart and gives full satisfaction. Yes. Even an un-expressible feeling can be best expressed through a good gift. Our parents start giving us gifts from the first day of our life. Though we don't understand the meaning and its value on that day, they give it, and we receive it. We not only receive gifts from our loved ones, but we also receive them from GOD - Donato. The best gift that we ever received from God is "our parents," and the second-best gift that we receive is "our children." Usually, we receive gifts from our parents and expect more. At the same time, parents also love to give. But our expectation of more from our parents never dies! Few children even go to the extent of getting it by force as if it is their birth right. Own blood never gets satisfied. Though we receive innumerable gifts from our parents, we rarely offer them any! If so, would you like to give them some good gifts? Of course, few of us may have already given gifts in the form of an object or an ornament, but was that the right gift? Or do they deserve more and something better? If so, what would be the best gift? What they may want? and what is that they would like to receive from you as a gift? Obviously, they expect and prefer the precious one! If so, does it cost you too much? No. Not at all! Don't worry about your money. It does not cost you too much. It is not expensive, but very valuable! Regardless of whether our parents expect gifts from us or not, whether they want to receive it or not, it is the moral responsibility of every living son and daughter to take care of their parents, offering them the right gift at the right time for their happiness and in their honor. After all, gifts are given to show our love, care, concern, affection, and gratitude. While giving, it is always good to give without remembering. A giving hand is far more powerful than a head bowing in prayer, and a good small act of kindness is always stronger than a thousand good thoughts in mind. So, let's convert all such good small acts of love and kindness into meaningful gifts and offer them to our parents for their happiness and honor.
