The Good Road
Traveling the Silk Road
by
Katrin Bologna
Many devastating wars, destruction, fires, famine and pestilence have seen the ancient trading cities along Traveling the Silk Road. Some of them have sunk into oblivion, leaving the ruins of the legendary descendants, other than once blazed with fire, and killed again revived, to amaze the world with riches, blue domes, openwork terracotta band of mausoleums and mosques. Centuries multilingual, bazaars, hundreds of years along the dusty caravan roads were carried for sale to Europeans silks and precious stones, spices and dyes, gold and silver, exotic birds and animals south.

The High Road
by
Benson Medina
A few weeks ago I got a call from my son's mother (apparently the politically correct way to refer to your ex) and we talked about some of our family issues and generally caught up on what's going on in our lives. Though we don't have a romantic connection anymore and we don't talk about our future together, we've never had a problem keeping things positive. Even when we talk about events in our past, we've had enough time and distance go by to see things for what they are: part of the journey that has brought us to where we are today.

I Feel Resentful That I'm Expected To Take The High Road After My Husband's Cheating And Affair
by
Katie Lersch
I recently heard from a wife who said, in part: "my husband had an affair last year. Immediately afterward, I kicked him out because I just could not stand the sight of him. I have to admit that I missed him and eventually I realized that I do not want to sacrifice my marriage. So I eventually let him move back home. But once he did, it was like he expected me to just put on a happy face and act as if the affair never happened. I have just not been able to do that. I'm still angry. I'm still disappointed. I need to see a lot of remorse and changes in him. But he doesn't seem to want to hear this. Even my friends are telling me that he isn't going to be patient with me forever. They advise me to take the high road and resist the urges that I have to contact the other woman, or grill my husband about the affair. Why do I always have to take the high road and pretend that everything is fine when it isn't? My husband still hasn't done enough to make this up to me."

The Silk Road - A Popular Route to Export Silk to Other Countries
by
Mike Ramidden
Cotton fabric is comfortable to wear, yet the silk fabric has a different charm. The finest silks were first cultivated in China and exported to other countries of the world through the Silk Road. This is not a single route but a set of routes that connected the regions of China, central Asia, and the West for trade and commerce.

The Parable of the Good Samaritan
by
Angela Mwema
Jesus told a story of how a certain man was attacked by robbers who beat him up and left him for dead. As he lay on the road unconscious, a priest passed by and had one look at him then went his way, passing on the other side of the road. A few minutes later, a Levi passed by and did exactly what the priest did and went his way too. As time went by, a Samaritan came by and noticed the badly beaten up man. He was deeply moved and was compassionate. He took him, washed up his wounds with oil and wine then dressed them up.
