    About this ebook

    Loyalty is a wonderful trait for a person to possess. It’s too often rare in our modern day version of humanity. Loyalty aligns itself nicely with the faithfulness of God if correctly dispensed, but when misdirected the cost can be tragic. Peer pressure is always the culprit when “Loyalties” get “Misplaced”. I pray this book enlightens us all to the havoc that can ensue when that is the case!

    Bill Taylor

    I believe when it comes to the topic of "faith" it's important to know the heart of the writer you are reading. Hence, a little insight. If you've perused my writings I trust you have noticed that I'm an unapologetic non-conformist thus not religious per say. In fact, my greatest concern in life is to be summarily dismissed as a "religious person". My preference? A "real person" serving "a real God" who "really loves" THE WORLD. From day one of my sojourn with God it's always been a "real or nothing" mindset. I couldn't imagine any other way to approach the journey. Admittedly, never perfect and often awkward, but that has been and continues to be the narrow road I travel. At 27 years of age Jesus literally stole my heart. I did not join a "Club". I fell in love and entered the "Kingdom" of my Lover. To me, that was as glorious and serious as it gets! While my writings may not adhere to the status quo at times, I do hope at the very least they provide stimulation for serious contemplation. Blessings to all. Bill Taylor

      Reminders

      A colorful past, while sounding somewhat exotic, can find itself laced with regrets. Flash backs of the many things I wish I had done differently have a way of accompanying my days. I must be careful to not wear them while sharing them. It is my what was not my what is. Yet still the refrain of: If I had only known then, what I know now, wishfully echoes through my mind periodically.

      Colorful as a descriptive, does not always accurately translate as positive or exciting. If I choose to jump out of a plane wearing a parachute, both descriptives will
