Download or read book Essays of an Ordinary Man - Volume 3 written by William J. Waters and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-02-16 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For me the most difficult material about which to write is a passage of scripture. I think that is because unlike a personal experience or a fictitious plot, a passage of scripture is incapable of comment in isolation; it has to be and may only be understood when viewed in its context. That is to say the passage or verse we select for review must be compared with other similar verses. Then finally, our interpretation must also agree with the overall thrust of scripture "Knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation, 21 for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit", 2 Peter 1:20, 21.

Maybe some of it will make you think, laugh, cry, or ring a bell with you. I just wanted to finally write down all the things I wanted to say. I wrote something over 30 years ago that my Mother found and gave to me, and through the encouragement of a total stranger she shared it with I started writing what you see here.

Book Synopsis INSIGHTS OF AN ORDINARY MAN by : Wayne Allen Levine
Download or read book INSIGHTS OF AN ORDINARY MAN written by Wayne Allen Levine and published by Spirit Wind Books. This book was released on 2016-11-23 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this collection of beautifully written essays, you will discover wonder, deep insights and awaken to the beauty which surrounds your life. What really lasts? What remains of all our thoughts and efforts? What, more than anything else, do we hope and pray and wish with all our heart to always remember? And what do we - above all else, wish to be remembered for? The yearning, burning ecstatic heart-ache - that lifts us up and lets us down intermittently. Those are among the meaningful questions that follow us through our everyday; attempting to guide and inspire us, even when our awareness of that grace-filled fact, is akin to a single fast-fading fragment of a long-forgotten dream. We keep coming back to those soul-shaping questions, whether we care to or not, because those are the questions that refuse to let us go! Fate, destiny, and an unbridled love and passion for the creative process - those three things, inextricably woven into the fabric of life, create the central thesis of this book you are about to venture into. The book itself - through honest stories, heart-felt vignettes, timeless reflections, and scattered poems, will best reveal the trajectory of this life I've been given, and would be honored to share with you through the course of this book. This is my impassioned invitation to you the reader to keep reading - turn the pages and tap into the beauty, power, and energy of your own unique awareness. These are simply the Insights of an Ordinary Man - with the IOAOM empowered acronym. IOAOM, with its acronymic O's for eyes looking up at you as you glance over them. And when those O's for eyes close or disappear, we are left with only the I AM.
Book Synopsis Diary of an Ordinary Man As in Extraordinary by : Peter Kerestur
Download or read book Diary of an Ordinary Man As in Extraordinary written by Peter Kerestur and published by Eloquent Books. This book was released on 2011-06 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On March 10, 1993, author Peter Kerestur underwent his second open heart surgery. Diary of an Ordinary Man As in "EXTRAORDINARY" presents a year's worth of the events, thoughts, incentives, and reactions that came about in the wake of this highly traumatic experience. The author notes that life not only goes on without bothering to slow down, but rather picks up speed while expanding on its range of topics. No subject is taboo in this extraordinary journal. It expounds on such varied topics as night driving, a beach thunderstorm, snowstorms, car repairs, religion, immortality, the funny bone, small man vs. corporate man, citizen vs. cop, near-death moments vs. reality. It features poems; it presents short-story synopses. It explores the times when Pepsi was still the other Cola, when gas was $1.30 a gallon for unleaded super, when terminology continued to devolve and "rain forest" was replacing "jungle." And yes, it sometimes feels racist, opinionated, slanted, even seeing red. The anchor event of the book is the author's car crash, which might well have led to his aortic valve replacement. It is also what motivated the Diary, and gave birth to philosophical essays not normally expected to be triggered by such an event. Author Bio: Raised in Europe, Peter Kerestur now lives in Bushkill, Pennsylvania, with his wife, the mother of his two grown children. Diary is his second book, following the novel Perspective: A Driver's Tale. He is working on his next book about the Industrial Revolution. Publisher's website: http: //SBPRA.com/PeterKerestur
Book Synopsis The Extraordinary Life of an Ordinary Man by : Paul Newman
Download or read book The Extraordinary Life of an Ordinary Man written by Paul Newman and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2022-10-18 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER • The raw, candid, unvarnished memoir of an American icon. The greatest movie star of the past 75 years covers everything: his traumatic childhood, his career, his drinking, his thoughts on Marlon Brando, James Dean, Elizabeth Taylor, John Huston, his greatest roles, acting, his intimate life with Joanne Woodward, his innermost fears and passions and joys. With thoughts/comments throughout from Joanne Woodward, George Roy Hill, Tom Cruise, Elia Kazan and many others. A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: TIME and Vanity Fair "Newman at his best…with his self-aware persona, storied marriage and generous charitable activities…this rich book somehow imbues his characters’ pain and joy with fresh technicolor." —The Wall Street Journal In 1986, Paul Newman and his closest friend, screenwriter Stewart Stern, began an extraordinary project. Stuart was to compile an oral history, to have Newman’s family and friends and those who worked closely with him, talk about the actor’s life. And then Newman would work with Stewart and give his side of the story. The only stipulation was that anyone who spoke on the record had to be completely honest. That same stipulation applied to Newman himself. The project lasted five years. The result is an extraordinary memoir, culled from thousands of pages of transcripts. The book is insightful, revealing, surprising. Newman’s voice is powerful, sometimes funny, sometimes painful, always meeting that high standard of searing honesty. The additional voices—from childhood friends and Navy buddies, from family members and film and theater collaborators such as Tom Cruise, George Roy Hill, Martin Ritt, and John Huston—that run throughout add richness and color and context to the story Newman is telling. Newman’s often traumatic childhood is brilliantly detailed. He talks about his teenage insecurities, his early failures with women, his rise to stardom, his early rivals (Marlon Brando and James Dean), his first marriage, his drinking, his philanthropy, the death of his son Scott, his strong desire for his daughters to know and understand the truth about their father. Perhaps the most moving material in the book centers around his relationship with Joanne Woodward—their love for each other, his dependence on her, the way she shaped him intellectually, emotionally and sexually. The Extraordinary Life of an Ordinary Man is revelatory and introspective, personal and analytical, loving and tender in some places, always complex and profound.

Book excerpt: The remarkable autobiography of the globally-recognized human rights champion whose heroism inspired the film Hotel Rwanda “Fascinating…your book is called An Ordinary Man, yet you took on an extraordinary feat with courage, determination, and diplomacy.” – Oprah, O, The Oprah Magazine As Rwanda was thrown into chaos during the 1994 genocide, Rusesabagina, a hotel manager, turned the luxurious Hotel Milles Collines into a refuge for more than 1,200 Tutsi and moderate Hutu refugees, while fending off their would-be killers with a combination of diplomacy and deception.

Excerpt: ... nent proofs of his skill in politics, when the strength of his purse and party have advanced him to a more conspicuous station. To such a one, truly, an ordinary coffee-house gleaner of the city is an arrant statesman, and as much superior to, as a man conversant about Whitehall and the court is to an ordinary shopkeeper. To carry this a little farther: here is one muffled up in the zeal and infallibility of his own sect, and will not touch a book or enter into debate with a person that will question any of those things which to him are sacred. Another surveys our differences in religion with an equitable and fair indifference, and so finds, probably, that none of them are in every thing unexceptionable. These divisions and systems were made by men, and carry the mark of fallible on them; and in those whom he differs from, and, till he opened his eyes, had a general prejudice against, he meets with more to be said for a great many things than before he was aware of, or could have imagined. Which of these two, now, is most likely to judge right in our religious controversies, and to be most stored with truth, the mark all pretend to aim at? All these men, that I have instanced in, thus unequally furnished with truth, and advanced in knowledge, I suppose of equal natural parts; all the odds between them has been the different scope that has been given to their understandings to range in, for the gathering up of information, and furnishing their heads with ideas and notions and observations, whereon to employ their mind and form their understandings. It will possibly be objected, " who is sufficient for all this?" I answer, more than can be imagined. Every one knows what his proper business is, and what, according to the character he makes...

Download or read book Why I Write written by George Orwell and published by Renard Press Ltd. This book was released on 2021-01-01 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Orwell set out ‘to make political writing into an art’, and to a wide extent this aim shaped the future of English literature – his descriptions of authoritarian regimes helped to form a new vocabulary that is fundamental to understanding totalitarianism. While 1984 and Animal Farm are amongst the most popular classic novels in the English language, this new series of Orwell’s essays seeks to bring a wider selection of his writing on politics and literature to a new readership. In Why I Write, the first in the Orwell’s Essays series, Orwell describes his journey to becoming a writer, and his movement from writing poems to short stories to the essays, fiction and non-fiction we remember him for. He also discusses what he sees as the ‘four great motives for writing’ – ‘sheer egoism’, ‘aesthetic enthusiasm’, ‘historical impulse’ and ‘political purpose’ – and considers the importance of keeping these in balance. Why I Write is a unique opportunity to look into Orwell’s mind, and it grants the reader an entirely different vantage point from which to consider the rest of the great writer’s oeuvre. 'A writer who can – and must – be rediscovered with every age.' — Irish Times

Excerpt: ... its just value, to abandon it for a dream. And yet hear the soul triumph over the miseries and weakness of the body, and that it is exposed to all attacks and alterations; truly, it has reason so to speak!-- "O prima infelix finger ti terra Prometheo! llle an in i cauti pectoris egit opus: Corpora disponens, mentem non vidit in arte; Recta animi primum debuit esse via."1 CHAPTER V UPON SOME VERSES OF VIRGIL By how much profitable thoughts are more full and solid, by so much are they also more cumbersome and heavy: vice, death, poverty, diseases, are grave and grievous subjects. A man should have his soul instructed in the means to sustain and to contend with evils, and in the rules of living and believing well: and often rouse it up, and exercise it in this noble study; but in an ordinary soul it must be by intervals and with moderation; it will otherwise grow besotted if continually intent upon it. I found it necessary, when I was young, to put myself in mind and solicit myself to keep me to my duty; gaiety and health do not, they say, so well agree with those grave and serious meditations: I am at present in another state: the conditions of age but too much put me in mind, urge me to wisdom, and preach to me. From the excess of sprightliness I am fallen into that of severity, which is much more troublesome; and for that reason I now and then suffer myself purposely a little to run into disorder, and occupy my mind in wanton and youthful thoughts, wherewith it diverts itself. I am of late but too reserved, too heavy, and too ripe; years every day read to me lectures of coldness and temperance. This body of mine avoids disorder and dreads it; 'tis now my body's turn to guide my mind towards reformation; it governs, in turn, and more...
