What possesses a man to leave a wife and family behind without just cause or explanation? What are the inner demons that plague a man, causing him to totally abandon the ones he loves - not just once, but twice in a lifetime? Unforgiven Destiny is an account of the life of John Frederick Williams based on historical fact obtained through family lore and legend. John was a man that learned early in life to run away from problems. As a child he migrated to America from Wales with his mother and sister during the second half of the 18th century. As immigrants to America, they were sponsored by a group of Mormons from Salt Lake City. After living in Utah for a few short years, they narrowly escaped the oppressive life of a polygamist culture. These experiences formed the catalyst of panic that plagued John for the remainder of his life. This consuming panic turned into a deep-seated fear --- causing him to turn tail and run when life became too overwhelming. It was the personal demon that pursued him throughout much of his life. As a young man living in Nebraska, his adulterous ways allowed him to marry several different women who bore his many children. The responsibility of family was a bondage that sentenced him to an unwanted life of drudgery and sacrifice. Each marriage took its toll on his dreams and aspirations. Ultimately, he was destined to live a secretive life of isolated solitude. In total desperation he would decide to leave his past behind while abandoning those he claimed to love as he set out to live his final years in obscurity. The story picks up in Gillette, Wyoming during the winter of 1917. After homesteading 120 acres in Gillette, with his second wife and most of his family, John was given a fraudulent check as payment for a large crop of hay from an agent purporting to represent the Western Hay & Grain Company out of Denver, Colorado. On Christmas Eve he headed out to set things straight with the swindler. His family never heard from him again. The circumstance involving his disappearance was a constant mystery, nagging his family and friends. For years they pondered the fate of John, haunted by the circumstance of his disappearance. The little information that was available was a close kept family secret, not to be revealed or unraveled for decades. Finally, after over thirty years of waiting to hear news about his fate, the family received word through a newspaper advertisement that he had passed away while living in Chester, Oklahoma under an assumed alias. Unforgiven Destiny is a compilation of the folklore from the family of John 'Frederick' Williams. It answers many of the unanswered questions of his life while unraveling the mystery of a man who made it a habit to run from the troubles of his past. While no one can firmly attest to the actual events or dialogue associated with his life after he left the homestead in 1917, this book fills in the missing pieces with calculated speculation. Nearly a century after the known events of his life, Unforgiven Destiny unravels the mystery while exposing the demons that plagued the man known as John 'Frederick' Williams.

The inspiring real life adoption story of two sisters and the unbreakable bond they build along the way.

One day, I was walking through a large Dallas-area bookstore while my daughters and wife disappeared into the sections of their interests. I was browsing the business section when I realized there were no books like I would write. I looked at many titles and read several back covers, but I saw nothing that sounded like what my yet-unwritten book would say. There were no cowboy hats, no horses, no restaurant stories, and certainly no ranching anecdotes. So that night, I decided to write this book for you. I hope you enjoy the journey we have been on to create the best small business we could imagine. After many failures, successes, and awards, the vision remains clear. Here is the story of insight, innovation, imagination, and true Burger Brilliance! This book explores the journey and culture of the highly successful business practices of Wells Cattle Co., located in Rockwall, TX. On these pages you will discover the innovation behind what many label as the best burger they have ever eaten. You will find insight into true servant customer care, along with the imagination required to create one of the most unique menus anywhere in the world. Innovation: I grew up with amazing ground beef. It was clean beef that was free of chemicals or hormones. Made from the entire side of beef deboned and ground together, it included the steaks and prime cuts, unlike other ground beef. Even when critics said it could not be done, I sold my first cow before I could get it to the processor. It has been an amazing ride! Insight: Just because I own a restaurant does not mean it belongs to me. That may be a shocking statement, but it is true. My restaurant belongs to every customer who chooses to spend their hard-earned money with us. I am humbled by the success we have seen in the time we have been serving our community. We have won almost every award given for burgers in our area, and we do not take a single accolade lightly. Imagination: One night I started creating burger ideas on my laptop. There was the Western Burger with our house-made barbeque sauce.... and a Mushroom Swiss. Then some crazy ideas started coming to mind like a German Burger with sauerkraut.... The list quickly grew to twelve burgers, ending up with an outrageous Brunch Burger built on waffles with syrup drizzled on the beef patty. Additionally, we are the only restaurant in town to serve farm-to-table Wagyu hot dogs. We offer standards like Chicago style, backyard, and even a few topped with a fried egg. We even have a dog with our peanut butter sauce, grape jelly, green chiles, and bacon. There is no lack of imagination!

Beauty is one of the most universal and timeless themes in art. Throughout history, artists have been fascinated by the human form, especially the female form, and have tried to capture its essence and express its meaning in various ways. Beauty is not only a matter of aesthetics, but also a matter of culture, values, emotions, and ideals. Beauty is subjective, relative, and dynamic. What is considered beautiful in one era, place, or society may not be in another. Beauty is also influenced by the personal preferences, experiences, and tastes of the artists and the viewers. In this book, I present a selection of my paintings that explore the concept of beauty in different historical periods and artistic movements. I have been a working professional painter all of my adult life, and I have always been interested in the history of art and the evolution of female beauty in art. I have studied the works of the masters and learned from their techniques, styles, and visions. I have also developed my own style of painting that combines realism, impressionism, and fantasy. I use realistic details, impressionistic colors, and fantastical elements to create my own interpretations of beauty. My paintings are not meant to be exact copies or reproductions of the original artworks, but rather my personal homage and tribute to them. I do not intend to imitate or compete with the masters, but to express my admiration and appreciation for their art. I also do not intend to make any definitive statements or judgments about beauty, but to invite the viewers to explore and enjoy the diversity and richness of beauty in art.
