THE SIMPLE TOUCH OF FATE: How the Hand of Fate Touched Our Lives Forever

This is a fascinating collection of stories revealing compassion, mystery, humor and warmth, written by people from various walks of life as they tell about their personal brush with FATE. A computer engineer experiences the touch of the unknown as he learns that the plane he was scheduled to be on has crashed into the World Trade Center. A father and daughter, trying to escape from war-torn Egypt, lose something very precious, but find it in such an incredible way that they are sure Fate has favored them. A woman from India relates the strange way in which she is given a Genasha God statue that has been blessed by a revered Swami. The stories evoke the texture of life in an elegant yet gentle mosaic that confirms the unseen hand of fate touching all our lives. This book is about all different kinds of Fate. The common thread is that each story raises the question: "Was that just a coincidence-or was it meant to be?"www.theramp.net/auslander.

"Now listen up all you guys, before you go thinking, ahh, another girly book, I want you to know there are many male contributors to this book, war heroes even, so please don't blow it off.??Judy Bridges, Book Reviewer for Stump Literary Magazine.***************************************** .....Whether you are a believer in fate or think that random happenings are merely a simple set of circumstances, this book will capture your interest and give you plenty of food for thought. I found it to be very interesting and had a hard time putting this one down. The stories stay with you long after you turn the last page. There is such an assortment of incidents that people have recorded that it is almost impossible to deny that there is a force at work that is much bigger than we can see. I would highly recommend this book for readers who are easily touched by the human spirit and all the oddities that happen which cannot be explained.?Kathy Bosworth, Book Reviewer for Denise's Pieces
