Book Releases

The original publisher for Benji's Special Christmas Gift went out of business, so, I self-published on Amazon.com.

When I wrote Benji's Special Christmas Gift, my children were in high school. I now have small grandchildren, so what better time to re-release? Trying to keep the story out there for the next generations.

Don't Hate Me Because...

10 Nov 2023 18:43

My name is not important you see I am just like you.I get up and start my day, and pray I make it through.There are the names you call me; you try to make me frown.But I have learned your bullying can never bring me down.Words can be so hurtful, if you believe all that they say,I know why they do it, because they were taught that way.Hatred is not born it is a trait that one does learn.I know that they bully me, but they themselves are torn.Don’t hate me because I’m beautiful. Don’t hate me because I’m smart.Don’t hate me because I’m different. Show that you have a heart.Don’t hate me because I’m skinny. Don’t hate me because I’m fat.Don’t hate me because I’m different. I’m much more than that.If only you got to know me or just given me a chance.We might have been friends, under a different circumstance.You do it to be cool, to be popular with peers.You are overcompensating, to hide from your own fears.You pick on ones that are quiet, too shy to say a word.You do not use your fist, but your names are sharp as swords.Hatred is not born. It is a trait that one does learn.I know that they bully me, but they themselves are torn. Don’t hate me because I’m beautiful. Don’t hate me because I’m smart.Don’t hate me because I’m different. Show that you have a heart.Don’t hate me because I’m skinny. Don’t hate me because I’m fat.Don’t hate me because I’m different. I’m much more than that.Parents teach your children to love instead of hate.Show them their potential to change another’s fate.Instead of being a bully, protect those who are weak.You could save a life with each kind word that you speak.Everyone is different, how boring would it be.If everyone looked the same as far as you could see.Hatred is not born. It is a trait that one does learn.I know that they bully me, but they themselves are torn. Don’t hate me because I’m beautiful. Don’t hate me because I’m smart.Don’t hate me because I’m different. Show that you have a heart.Don’t hate me because I’m skinny. Don’t hate me because I’m fat.Don’t hate me because I’m different. I’m much more than that.
