Pride of Ownership, one of the stories in the Angel Zabar Series
Pride of Ownership is one of several stories in Bob Miller’s An Angel Named Zabar. The Pride of
Ownership floated effortlessly in the azure waters of the Gulf. It was to be a fun fishing trip. But there
would be no fishing. This is a spiritual, uplifting, rainy day or bedtime short story book. It's perfect for
adults and adolescences alike.
Pride of Ownership by Bob Miller
"Mr. Zabar," Kelly started, "I don’t know what to say. I feel empty, ashamed. I feel an awful loss."

"Captain, you just witnessed a young man, of his own free will, choosing to accept the One whose name
only moments earlier he had taken in vain. He was faced with two choices, and he chose the King of
Kings." Pride of Ownership by Bob Miller
From the Publisher: They call him the Taciturn man. He walks the path
between heaven and earth as if it were Dorothy's yellow brick road.
Seemingly, without the effort it would take to decorate a Christmas tree,
he retired at age 48. He married two widowed millionaires, and on his
departure, he left both of them better off financially. Like the wind, he's
here today and gone tomorrow. He's been honored by the Who's Who in
Hollywood and locked away by the Who's Who in Washington. He beat the
casinos in Las Vegas at their own game until he was barred without a
stated reason from the Frontier and Landmark Casinos.

We asked this Taciturn man, Bob Miller, what it was like living in a world of
smoke and mirrors. Where no one is who they claim to be and death is
always waiting just around the next corner. He laughed and said, "What a
crock. There's far more danger and pain involved in going to the dentist
than I've experienced. Excitement and adventure, yes; but smoke and
mirrors, give me a break. The secret of wealth and peace of mind has
never been a secret. I have never needed or wanted anything in vain
because I've always been open minded and humble before those whose
only purpose is to lead us down a path of fulfillment and contentment."
All of that may be true, but there is something that's both energizing and foreboding about a man who
has rubbed shoulders with men like Martin Luther King, Frank Sinatra, Alan Alda, Jerry Falwell, and
Tony Spilotro.

From the author: "Hardly a day goes by that someone doesn’t write to say that they do not believe in
angels. Why they go to this trouble beats me. I don’t ask people to believe in angels or anything else. I
have simply recorded my travels with my friend and guardian angel, Zabar. For what it’s worth, angels
are mentioned the in the books of the Old and New Testaments 299 times in 280 verses. So I can
only assume that those who don’t believe in angels don’t believe what's written in the Bible either; and
that, too, is okay with me. I will admit that I find people somewhat amusing who tell me in one breath
that they’re unhappy, broke, and their lives are boring, and then turn around and make fun of my
beliefs and lifestyle."  - Bob Miller

These short stories about an angel named, Zabar, are only a small sampling of events that take place
around the world at every moment. If your life is not living up to your expectations or you're unhappy but
don't really know why, help is available. Like the teachings of Jesus, the predictions of Michel de
Nostradame, and the visions of Joseph Smith, it's entirely possible that in a hundred years or so
author Bob Miller's diary entries about an angel named Zabar will serve their intended purpose. The
good news is you do not have to wait until others wake up to the fact that all their dreams, hopes and
wishes can come true.
