The majority of these interviews grew out of my daily drives for Uber and Lyft. Each time I picked up a new passenger I would ask them one question: What are some of the things you have learned in life? Most were very willing to talk to me, and I found many of their responses to be intelligent, thoughtful, occasionally humorous, and often very wise. After a while I decided their answers would be interesting to others and make a good book. So I created a form to be filled out during our short time together. I told them there was no right or wrong answer. I just wanted their honest thoughts. Most of my riders agreed to participate, and I promised to use only their first name, age and occupation, if they provided it to me. Eventually I expanded my base and posed the question to others I met in the normal course of life. I interviewed over 165 people from ages 5 to 95. Every person had unique lessons they have learned from life, no matter how long or short it has been. In the following pages are their answers, in their own words, to the simple question: What three things have you learned in life?

Scotch LaHague, an aide to a powerful congressman in Washington, D. C., is desperate for a change. Disillusioned by the petty politics and self-serving relationships that surround him in the nation's capital, he knows that he must make a change-before Washington changes him. When sent on an official business trip to Paris, Scotch hopes that the City of Lights will give him a reprieve from his mundane Washington existence. That's where he meets her-a beautiful and mysterious young woman whose sad and penetrating eyes seem to reach into his soul. As he draws closer to her while exploring the streets and cafes of Paris, he discovers the reason for her mystery: she is running for her life. Scotch wants desperately to help her, sensing that somehow, in saving her, he may also save himself. But doing so places him squarely in the cross-hairs of an international terrorist organization that will stop at nothing to fulfill its devious mission: a plot to destroy an iconic NASA space vehicle. How far is Scotch willing to go and what is he willing to risk to keep the young woman safe-and possibly, in the process, stop the terrorist attack? Visit www.thelastsnowmaninparis.com

"Success does not come by making popular decisions. It comes by obeying God." "One reason there are so many unhappy Christians is they feel God should be doing them favors and heaping upon them material rewards and benefits, rather than working as a Carpenter to shape their lives back into His own image." "Life is designed by God as a pilgrimage composed of many wildernesses....." These and many other quotes and excerpts from a variety of Jamie Buckingham's popular books and teachings have been compiled for the purposes of this book. Jamie was a popular teacher/pastor at the Tabernacle Church in Melbourne, Florida. He was known world-wide for his books and teachings.
