This is my third book containing more stories from my blog wiecking.com. I thought I'd create it as Jacob's 6th angelversary approaches. How could it be 6 years? So much has happened during those years and if you decide to turn the pages of this book you'll find out how we are living our lives without our beautiful brown eyed boy Jacob - 'forever 20.' The title of this book came about as a quote that Jacob's dad said to him as he was having treatment for Ewing's Sarcoma - 'Stay Gold Ponyboy.' This quote was said during one of Jacob's many favourite movies - The Secret Life of Walter Mitty.' As I looked at 'The Outsiders' book quote further I found out that it is was a reference to the Robert Frost poem that Ponyboy recites to Johnny when the two hide out in the Windrixville Church. One line in the poem reads, "Nothing gold can stay," meaning that all good things must come to an end. ... Here, Johnny urges Ponyboy to remain gold, or innocent.
